alanine and Nutrition Disorders

alanine has been researched along with Nutrition Disorders in 11 studies

Alanine: A non-essential amino acid that occurs in high levels in its free state in plasma. It is produced from pyruvate by transamination. It is involved in sugar and acid metabolism, increases IMMUNITY, and provides energy for muscle tissue, BRAIN, and the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
alanine : An alpha-amino acid that consists of propionic acid bearing an amino substituent at position 2.

Nutrition Disorders: Disorders caused by nutritional imbalance, either overnutrition or undernutrition.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Comparison of a group of patients undergoing an operation of moderate severity (vagotomy and pyloroplasty or cholecystectomy) with those having the more severe procedure of resection of aortic aneurysm with Dacron graft replacement suggests that these general changes in amino acid concentrations do not appear to be due to the severity of the operation, although cystine levels were lower, and phenylalanine levels were higher, in the graft-replacement group."3.65The effect of surgical operation on venous plasma free amino acids. ( Dale, G; Goode, A; Johnston, ID; Latner, AL; Tweedle, D; Young, G, 1977)
"Urea hydrolysis was calculated from the 15N enrichment of urinary urea, and where possible, lysine, alanine, glycine and histidine were isolated from urine by preparative ion-exchange chromatography for measurement of 15N enrichment."1.31The transfer of 15N from urea to lysine in the human infant. ( Ah-Sing, E; Badaloo, A; Boyne, M; Forrester, T; Gibson, N; Jackson, A; Millward, DJ; Persaud, C; Reade, M; Yeboah, N, 2000)
