Research progress of branched-chain amino acid in cardiometabolic diseases / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

ABSTRACT

The prevalences of cardiometabolic diseases such as obesity, insulin resistance are rising. Abnormal metabolisms of glucose and lipid are associated with cardiometabolic diseases. The amino acids are also play important roles in cardiometabolic diseases. Branched-chain amino acids are important essential amino acids, and studies about branched-chain amino acids in cardiometabolic diseases are rising. In this review we aimed to investigate the progress of branched-chain amino acids in cardiometabolic diseases.
