Objectives: Amino acids (AA) plasma profile is associated with cardiometabolic diseases (CMD), predicts diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) many years in advance. Metabolic syndrome (MS) defines the area of metabolic disturbances that precede DM2 and CVD development. The primary objective of the study was to examine the association between BCAA (branched chain amino acids), AAA (aromatic amino acids) profile and MS’s phenotype and to evaluate ...

Results of metabolomic studies showed the relation of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) and aromatic amino acids (AAA) with metabolic disorders.Basing on this observation we assessed amino acid profile in 286 professionally active men (aged 36–60 years). 141 of them met the criteria of metabolic syndrome (MS) and remaining 142 served as controls.Quantitative analysis of BCAA (leucine-LEU, valine-VAL, isoleucine- ILE) and AAA (...
