It enables readers to understand the crucial roles of amino acids and their metabolites in the health and diseases of the circulatory, digestive, endocrine, immune, muscular, nervous, reproductive, respiratory, skeletal, and urinary systems, as well as the sense organs (eyes, ears, nose, skin, and tongue). Readers will learn that amino acids are not only the building blocks of protein, but are also signalling molecules, as well as regulators of gene expression, metabolic processes and developmental changes in the body. This knowledge will guide nutritional practices to improve the growth, development and health of humans and other animals, as well as prevent and treat chronic (e.g., obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders) and infectious (e.g., bacterial, fungal, parasite, and viral) diseases. Editor of this volume is an internationally recognized expert in nutritional biochemistry. He has over 38 years of experience with research and teaching at world-class universities in the area of amino acid biochemistry, nutrition, and physiology. He has published more than 625 papers in peer-reviewed journals, 62 chapters in books, and authored two text/reference books, with an H-index of 117 and more than 55,000 citations in Google Scholar. This publication is a useful reference for professionals as well as undergraduate and graduate students in animal science, biochemistry, biomedical engineering, biology, human medicine, food science, kinesiology, nursing, nutrition, pharmacology, physiology, toxicology, veterinary medicine, and other related disciplines. In addition, all chapters provide general and specific references to amino acids in systems health for researchers and practitioners in biomedicine, animal and plant agriculture, and aquaculture, and for government policy makers. 410 0$aAdvances in Experimental Medicine and Biology,$x0065-2598 ;$v1265 606 $aImmunology 606 $aMedicine 606 $aCell biology 606 $aBiochemistry 606 $aNutrition    606 $aImmunology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B14000 606 $aMedicine/Public Health, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H00007 606 $aCell Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16008 606 $aBiochemistry, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14005 606 $aNutrition$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C18000 606 $aNutrició$2thub 606 $aSalut$2thub 606 $aAminoącids$2thub 606 $aSistema immunitari$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrņnics$2thub 615 0$aImmunology. 615 0$aMedicine. 615 0$aCell biology. 615 0$aBiochemistry. 615 0$aNutrition   . 615 14$aImmunology. 615 24$aMedicine/Public Health, general. 615 24$aCell Biology. 615 24$aBiochemistry, general. 615 24$aNutrition. 615 7$aNutrició 615 7$aSalut 615 7$aAminoącids 615 7$aSistema immunitari 676 $a574.192 702 $aWu$b Guoyao$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416102703321 996 $aAmino acids in nutrition and health$91892922 997 $aUNINA
