A branched-chain amino acid metabolite drives vascular fatty acid transport and causes insulin resistance
2016
Fatty acid transport from blood vessels to skeletal muscle, across endothelial cells, is regulated by the branched chain amino acid metabolite 3-hydroxy-isobutyrate. This finding provides a mechanistic explanation for the link between high levels of branched chain amino acids and diabetes.
