Abstract:Background
Emerging evidence suggests that alterations in BCAA metabolism may contribute to the pathogenesis of sarcopenia. However, the relationship between branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and sarcopenia is incompletely understood, and existing literature presents conflicting results. In this study, we conducted a community-based study involving > 100,000 United Kingdom adults to comprehensively explore the association between BCAAs and sarcopenia, and assess the potential role of muscle… Show more
