Ellappan Babu, Yangzom Bhutia and Sabarish Ramachandran performed most of the experiments; Jaya Gnanaprakasam did the ELISA for cytokines; Puttur Prasad and Muthusamy Thangaraju were responsible for the design of the targeting vector used in the generation of the knockout mouse and also for the analysis of
plasma amino acids; Vadivel Ganapathy was responsible for the design of the study, interpretation of the data, and writing of the manuscript.
The review of systemic amino acid homeostasis will focus on organs and mechanisms that influence
plasma amino acid concentrations.
The plasma amino acids were similar in wild - type and knockout mice and there were no major compensatory changes in the expression of other amino acid transporter mRNAs.
On the other hand, the protein you get from food will need to be digested or hydrolyzed to a certain degree first, before the aforementioned
plasma amino acid levels increase.
The study was performed in 2002 and found that «
plasma amino acid elevation induces skeletal muscle insulin resistance in humans» (18).
The rapid rise in
plasma amino acids may stimulate protein synthesis, but it also accelerates the rate of amino acid breakdown and production of urea.

plasma amino acids and a quick increase in protein synthesis.

In this case, research shows that eating protein (and thus elevating
plasma amino acid levels) before training can help you build muscle faster.
Lastly casein protein has the slowest absorption rate but in doing so it elevates
plasma amino acid levels for the longest period of time.
The paper «Glycemia and insulinemia in healthy subjects after lactose - equivalent meals of milk and other food proteins: the role of
plasma amino acids and incretins» sheds some light upon the mechanism of insulin secretion.
Thus, if you had eaten a meal with a considerable amount of protein just an hour or two before working out,
your plasma amino acid levels (the levels in your blood) would be quite high come workout time.
Whey protein increases postprandial
plasma amino acid availability, further stimulating muscle protein synthesis (53, 55 — 58), more than casein (59, 60).
Therefore should no additional carbohydrate be ingested during prolonged exercise, the task of maintaining blood glucose levels rests firmly on the liver's glycogen stores and gluconeogenesis (the manufacturing of glucose from
plasma amino acids).
If you have a reason to suspect amino acid deficiency, taking appropriate lab test (such as urine and
plasma amino acid tests) is the first step in finding out if that is the case and, if it is, pinpoint the cause and have it corrected.
These results concur with previous data indicating that only moderate insulin elevations (15 — 30 mU / L) are required to maximize net muscle protein balance in the presence of elevated
plasma amino acids [96].
Recent data from animal models suggest that consumption of BCAA's between meals can overcome the refractory response in protein synthesis that occurs when
plasma amino acids are elevated, yet protein synthesis is reduced [174].
Evidence of the refractory phenomenon was shown by Bohé et al. [117], who elevated
plasma amino acid levels in humans and observed that MPS peaked at the 2 - hour mark, and rapidly declined thereafter despite continually elevated blood amino acid levels.
«If insulin is infused locally into skeletal muscle at a rate low enough to avoid systemic reductions in
plasma amino acids, MPS is stimulated.
These powerful emotions trigger adrenal hormone release — the physiological effects of which include activation of adipocyte lipase (resulting in mobilization of free fatty acids) and partial inhibition of protein synthesis, i.e.,
the plasma amino acids which are normally (readily) utilized by nonmalignant cells for protein synthesis are only partially used resulting in an increase in the availability of amino acids to meet tumor cell metabolic needs.
(a) The oxidative catabolism of free fatty acids and amino acids (via the Respiratory Chain and Citric Acid Cycle) might be inhibited in hypoxic cancer cells via the judicious use of agents which inhibit their availability, i.e., partially inhibit hepatic fatty acid synthesis and keep
plasma amino acid levels within the normal range, thus decreasing ATP production;
Keep
plasma amino acid levels within the range required to sustain general health [Normal cells will rapidly utilize the amino acids liberated by the catabolism of foods.
When cortisol is released, it causes a breakdown of protein, carbohydrate, and fat and an increase in
plasma amino acids, specifically glutamine and the branched - chain amino acids (BCAAs).
Well, ideally, you'd have something that quickly raises
plasma amino acid levels, and thus protein synthesis rates, and that's rich in the amino acid leucine, which is what most directly stimulates muscle growth.
Plasma amino acid response after ingestion of different whey protein fractions.
High levels of
these plasma amino acids predicted future diabetes, e.g., as found for single plasma amino acids, such as leucine, with an HR of 3.66 (95 % 1.61 — 8.29), and for combinations of the amino acids isoleucine, tyrosine, and phenylalanine, with an HR of 5.99 (2.34 — 15.34) comparing the highest versus lowest quartile (34).
This is in line with earlier experimental elevations of
plasma amino acids by infusion, which resulted in impaired insulin - stimulated glucose disposal and insulin - mediated suppression of (hepatic) glucose production (36,37).
