Serum Amino Acids Imbalance in Canine Chronic Hepatitis: Results in 16 Dogs

Serum Amino Acids Imbalance in Canine Chronic Hepatitis: Results in 16 Dogs

In humans, chronic liver disease may cause alterations in amino acids (AAs) metabolism, with serum branched-chain AAs (BCAAs) decreasing and aromatic AAs (AAAs) increasing. A reduced Fischer ratio (BCAAs/AAAs) has been found to be associated with hepatic fibrosis and is useful for assessing prognosi...
