Glutamine instability in liquid media suggests that evaluation of reasonable enteral nutrition sources of glutamine is needed. N-acetyl-l-glutamine offers no instability and no intolerance problems. This research was conducted to study the absorption and apparent digestibility of glutamine versus N-acetyl-l-glutamine.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is becoming the second leading cause of cancer-related death in the Western world. The mortality is very high, which emphasizes the need to identify biomarkers for early detection. As glutamine metabolism alteration is a feature of

L-glutamine is too unstable for inclusion in solutions for parenteral nutrition, but its acetylated analogue, N-acetyl-L-glutamine is not. The purpose of this three-part study was to investigate the utilization of intravenously (IV) administered acetylglutamine in humans. In study 1, nine
The pyrimidine nucleosides uridine (URI) and cytidine (CYT), alone or associated with n-acetyl-glutamine (NAG), were injected acutely or subchronically to aged (26 months old) male rats of the Sprague-Dawley strain. Learning and memory abilities of the animals were studied with

The goal of this study was to evaluate the preventive effect of free glutamine versus N-acetyl-L-glutamine, a liquid-stable source of glutamine, on gut damage induced by protein energy malnutrition in pigs. Healthy pigs (n = 6) were fed a liquid
