gamma-butyrobetaine and Pregnancy

gamma-butyrobetaine has been researched along with Pregnancy in 3 studies

4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate : An amino-acid betaine gamma-aminobutyric acid zwitterion in which all of the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen are replaced by methyl groups.

Pregnancy: The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"This study confirms that plasma carnitine concentrations decline in the course of pregnancy, an effect that can be prevented by the supplementation of carnitine."5.14Carnitine status of pregnant women: effect of carnitine supplementation and correlation between iron status and plasma carnitine concentration. ( Eder, K; Keller, U; Röpke, F; Scheler, C; Seliger, G; van der Wal, C, 2009)
" It was moreover intended to find out whether low carnitine concentrations during pregnancy could be due to a reduced availability of precursors of carnitine synthesis, namely trimethyllysine (TML) and gamma-butyrobetaine (BB)."3.76Low availability of carnitine precursors as a possible reason for the diminished plasma carnitine concentrations in pregnant women. ( Eder, K; Hanisch, N; Ringseis, R; Seliger, G, 2010)
