DESCRIPTION L-Leucine is an essential branched-chain amino acid. It inhibits voltage-gated calcium channel (alpha 2 delta), IC50 = 61.3 nM. (Enamine Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION L-Leucine ((S)-Leucine) is one of nine essential amino acids in humans (provided by food), L-Leucine is important for protein synthesis and many metabolic functions. L-Leucine contributes to regulation of blood-sugar levels; growth and repair of muscle and bone tissue; growth hormone production; and wound healing. L-Leucine also prevents breakdown of muscle proteins after trauma or severe stress and may be beneficial for individuals with phenylketonuria. L-Leucine is available in many foods and deficiency is rare. (TargetMol Bioactive Compound Library)
DESCRIPTION L-Leucine-1-13C (L-Leucine-13C) is a 13C-labeled L-Leucine that significantly enhances the affinity of GLP-4. (TargetMol Bioactive Compound Library)
