A (14)C-leucine absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) study in adult Sprague–Dawley rat reveals β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate as a metabolite
Leucine is an essential branched-chain amino acid that acts as a substrate for protein synthesis and as a signaling molecule. Leucine not incorporated into muscle protein is ultimately oxidized through intermediates such as β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate (HMB) which itself is reported to enhance muscle...
