“…From 22 evaluated metabolites (lactate, glutamine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, valine, pyruvate, citrate, acetate, alanine, glucose, succinate, 3-hydroxybutyrate, 2-oxoisocaproate, 2-oxoisovalerate, 3-methyl-2-oxovalerate and lipoproteins fraction (composition please see [ 29 , 30 ]), plasma levels of eight metabolites: glucose, acetate, 3-hydroxybutyrate, phenylalanine, tryptophan, tyrosine, histidine and lipoproteins fraction were significantly changed in rats subjected to Met diet administration against controls. Changes observed in plasma levels of three metabolites: leucine, isoleucine and valine were approaching the borderline of significance with a p < 0.08.…”
