alanine and Urinary Tract Infections

alanine has been researched along with Urinary Tract Infections in 6 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.

Urinary Tract Infections: Inflammatory responses of the epithelium of the URINARY TRACT to microbial invasions. They are often bacterial infections with associated BACTERIURIA and PYURIA.

" Other factors, including congestive heart failure, growth hormone deficiency, and hypoalaninemia might have contributed to the development of hypoglycemia in this patient."3.66Sulfonamide-induced hypoglycemia in chronic renal failure. ( Arem, R; Field, JB; Garber, AJ, 1983)
"Alafosfalin is a phosphonodipeptide with significant activity as an antibacterial agent and as a potentiator of beta-lactam antibiotics."2.65Pharmacokinetics of alafosfalin, alone and in combination with cephalexin, in humans. ( Allen, JG; Lees, LJ, 1980)
"Alafosfalin was generally comparable in activity to cefamandole and mecillinam but superior to other cephalosporins tested."1.26In vitro potentiation of cephalosporins by alafosfalin against urinary tract bacteria. ( Arisawa, M; Maruyama, HB; Ohsawa, E; Ohshima, J, 1982)
