Amino acid may hold the key to reducing the dead of famine

Number of death, malnutrition can reduce computer according to dispersion strengthening dietary amino acid tryptophan author additional and substantial, new research international famine relief program during the.

Their conclusions are based on the mouse detection may help them suffer from malnutrition diseases and malnutrition of the links between the molecular description and potentially fatal bowel problem.

Describes heart and kidney function enzymes ACE2 ( angiotensin converting enzyme 2) from a research study published in 7/26, how that affect their conclusion in the Kiel University of Vienna Institute of molecular biotechnology, Austria, and Germany from the scientists.

Made clear to control how to absorb the amino acids from food, especially essential amino acid tryptophan unable to synthesize in the mouse experiment ACE2 gut, the body and the obtained from the diet.

Scientists found levels of tryptophan is inadequate and experience changes in the types of gut and intestinal bacteria change as the immune system of the mice. Potentially fatal conditions like this more susceptible to intestinal inflammation, and other changes.

ACE2-deficient mice and mouse intestinal bacteria low tryptophan forage breeding communities in – for controlling the composition in the small intestine to antimicrobial peptides created by the immune system-of found that reduced the amount of.

Intestinal bacterial balance has been restored and tryptophan rich foods. Review of tryptophan starved guts microbial community changes can induce this decrease inflammation and intestinal problems.

Thomas perlot may improve especially significant emergency hunger relief strategy for the global strategy of the discoveries where studies are based in the Institute of the Austria lead by tackling malnutrition.

Said if we discovered mice not only apply to humans, can be wide ranging impact on malnutrition program is, Perlot SciDev.Net.

"During the famine epidemic during the emergency food assistance program - Horn of Africa, for example, last year famine - related as possible adding tryptophan as a dietary supplement," and he said.

Is based on need Suleman Kazi, Pakistan now before considered so worth including tackling malnutrition program is the researchers to generate "some solid evidence or evaluate the effectiveness of clinical trial results, including international nutrition consultant SciDev.Net.
