Effects of alfa-hydroxy-isocaproic acid on body composition, DOMS and performance in athletes.

Antti A Mero et al.

Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 7, 1-1 (2010-01-07)

Alfa-Hydroxy-isocaproic acid (HICA) is an end product of leucine metabolism in human tissues such as muscle and connective tissue. According to the clinical and experimental studies, HICA can be considered as an anti-catabolic substance. The present study investigated the effects

Chronic α-hydroxyisocaproic acid treatment improves muscle recovery after immobilization-induced atrophy.

Charles H Lang et al.

American journal of physiology. Endocrinology and metabolism, 305(3), E416-E428 (2013-06-13)

Muscle disuse atrophy is observed routinely in patients recovering from traumatic injury and can be either generalized resulting from extended bed rest or localized resulting from single-limb immobilization. The present study addressed the hypothesis that a diet containing 5% α-hydroxyisocaproic

Stimulation of lipid peroxidation in vitro in rat brain by the metabolites accumulating in maple syrup urine disease.

Fernanda U Fontella et al.

Metabolic brain disease, 17(1), 47-54 (2002-03-16)

In this study we investigated the in vitro effects of the metabolites accumulating in maple syrup urine disease on lipid peroxidation in brain of young rats. Chemiluminescence and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances were measured in brain homogenates from 7- and 30-day-old
