Apparent Saturation of Branched-Chain Amino Acid Catabolism After High Dietary Milk Protein Intake in Healthy Adults.
J Clin Endocrinol Metab
September 2024
Division of Metabolic and Nutritional Medicine, Department Paediatrics, Dr. von Hauner Children's Hospital, LMU University Hospital, LMU Munich, and the German Center for Child and Adolescent Health, site Munich, 80337 Munich, Germany.
Context: Milk protein contains high concentrations of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) that play a critical role in anabolism and are implicated in the onset of obesity and chronic disease. Characterizing BCAA catabolism in the postprandial phase could elucidate the impact of protein intake on obesity risk established in the "early protein hypothesis."
Objective: To examine the acute effects of protein content of young child formulas as test meals on BCAA catabolism, observing postprandial plasma concentrations of BCAA in relation to their degradation products.
