The critical role of tyrosine in the human body

2022/04/28

Valine is an important nutrient for the human body. Its main effects on the human body are as follows:

1. Promote the growth and development of the body, repair damaged tissues, and provide the body with energy

Valine is one of the three branched-chain amino acids (BACC) (Note: Leucine, isoleucine, and valine are three essential amino acids with a branched-chain carbon skeleton.) If lacking, it will cause tactile sensitivity. The degree is remarkably improved, and the ataxia of the muscles is imbalanced.

Branched-chain amino acids are closely related to human exercise capacity, can provide energy reserves for long-term endurance exercise, promote muscle protein synthesis, and can regulate the peripheral mechanism that triggers exercise fatigue, delay the appearance of exercise fatigue, and replenish branch chains after exercise Amino acids can also promote recovery from exercise fatigue.

2. Protect the liver and nervous system

Studies have found that supplementation of branched-chain amino acid preparations such as valine can change the body's metabolic state and reduce the occurrence of complications of liver cirrhosis. It can also inhibit liver cancer, improve the body's immune function, and resist oxidative stress in vitro and in vivo. It is known that branched-chain amino acids can enhance nutritional status by stimulating liver cell synthesis and reducing catabolism after liver injury.

Valine can be used as a treatment drug for hepatic coma. Supplementing valine can prevent hepatic encephalopathy (HE), thereby promoting normal nervous system function. A deficiency of valine can cause neurological deficits in the brain, which can cause neurological disorders.

3. As a therapeutic agent to accelerate wound healing

The recovery of surgical patients has a significant effect on external injuries, burns, and burns.

4. Other functions

①Regulate blood sugar

②Treat malnutrition

③Prevent anemia

④Anti-tumor

The rhein-valine adduct synthesized from valine, and rhein has good anti-tumor activity.
