Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: The amino acid profile of young adults is modified by sex, body mass index (BMI) and insulin resistance (IR). However, we do not know if age or the presence of specific polymorphisms in the genes of BCAT2 and BCKDH contribute to changes in the amino acid profile, especially in subjects with obesity. Therefore, we have evaluated the effect of age, the presence of IR and the polymorphisms of...
