Pilot data from the (co-)applicants' laboratories suggest that EAE rats (animal MS model) and MS-patients suffer from significantly reduced muscle carnosine levels compared to healthy counterparts. The potential of β-alanine supplementation to elevate muscle carnosine content has been shown in
Carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine) is a naturally occurring dipeptide formed by bonding histidine and β-alanine in a reaction catalysed by carnosine synthase. One role of carnosine within the human system, is as an intracellular pH buffer due to its pKa of 6.83. Carnosine is suitable over the whole
An equal number of men and women will be recruited [Men, n=20 (10 placebo [PL]; 10 beta-alanine (Active)]; [Women,n=20 (10 PL; 10 Active)]. Men and women will be randomly assigned to respective groups to allow for equal numbers in supplement and placebo groups.
Hyperuricemia is a common metabolic disorder. It can result from a decreased renal uric acid excretion, increased urate production, or both. The classical association with clinical gout is well-known. The principal indications for uric acid-lowering therapy, including allopurinol, probenecid and
