Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cysteine suppressed the shrinkage of hepatic stellate cells and strongly inhibited the endothelin-induced elevation of calcium in hepatic stellate cells. The serum ALT level in the cysteine-administered group was significantly lower than that in the non-administered group in a rat sepsis model. Cysteine showed an inhibitory effect on rat liver damage caused by intraperitoneal administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The serum albumin level was correlated with the area of the psoas major muscle. The hospitalization period was prolonged, and postoperative complications such as an abdominal abscess and liver failure increased in patients with decreased muscle mass (sarcopenia) of the total femoral muscle. Most covalent bonds in cysteine were formed with serum albumin. Our results suggested that cysteine was effective in improving sarcopenia after surgery.
