Abstract Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) is a free amino acid found ubiquitously in
millimolar concentrations in all mammalian tissues. Taurine exerts a variety of biological …

Although fructose consumption has dramatically increased and is suspected to be causally
linked to metabolic abnormalities, the mechanisms involved are still only partially …

This study aimed to determine whether taurine supplementation improves metabolic
disturbances and diabetic complications in an animal model for type 2 diabetes. We …

Metabolic syndrome, a cluster of risk factors for diabetes and cardiovascular disease, has
become a very serious public health concern. A number of studies have provided evidence …

Objective The ameliorative effect of taurine on diabetes has received extensive attention in
recent years. Despite promising data from animal studies, the efficacy of taurine …

Abstract Taurine, 2-amino ethanesulfonic acid, is a conditionally essential β amino acid
which is not utilized in protein synthesis. Taurine is one of the most abundant free amino …

Insulin resistance (IR) is the central link to metabolic syndrome (MS), and IR prevention has
become the key to overcoming this worldwide public health problem. A diet rich in simple …

Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid present in the body in free form. Mammalian
taurine is synthesized in the pancreas via the cysteine sulfinic acid pathway. Anti-oxidation …

Metabolic syndrome is characterized by the cluster of a number of metabolic abnormalities
in the presence of underlying insulin resistance. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome has …

Objective Recent studies have found that the levels of plasma amino acids, such as
branched-chain amino acids and aromatic amino acids, were associated with visceral …
