The Drosophila microbiome regulates the cycling of gut metabolites in a circadian clock and diet-dependent manner.

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein that support nearly every biological process in the body, including tissue repair, enzyme production, and synthesis of hormones, she says.

In a new peer reviewed analysis, scientists quantify amino acids before and after our “last universal common ancestor.” The last universal common ancestor is the single life form that branched ...

By genetically modifying mice to not produce the amino acid cysteine, and feeding them a cysteine-free diet, rapid weight loss was achieved.

By eliminating the essential amino acid cysteine from the diets of mice, and disabling their ability to produce it, scientists have induced rapid and dramatic weight loss. The technique opens a ...

In this study, branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) clearly impacted the reproductive function of male mice, causing significant changes in sperm concentration and a decline in fertility.

Vegans who meet their daily protein requirements may still fall short on certain essential amino acids, according to new research. Unlike animal-based proteins, many plant-based proteins are less ...
