Interaction Information:
Comment | Insulin has long been recognized as the regulator of branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex, an enzyme complex involved in BCAA catabolism. Insulin resistance has been found to reduce the enzymatic activity of branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex and hence suppress BCAA catabolism. This is considered as the plausible etiology of increased BCAA levels in obesity and/or diabetes. Indeed, evidence is accumulating that there is positive association between insulin resistance and circulating concentrations of BCAAs. |

Comment | The elevated BCAAs are able to activate mTORC and its downstream effecter S6K1 in the liver, muscle and adipose tissue. Persistent activation leads to serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and thus the inhibition of IRS-1, resulting in insulin resistance. |
