Dietary Proteins -- chemistry : Micro/nanoencapsulation of active food ingredients / Qingrong Huang, editor, Peter Given, editor, Michael Qian, editor ; sponsored by the ACS Division of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, Inc
A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of proteins in the diet, characterized by adaptive enzyme changes in the liver, increase in amino acid synthetases, and diminution of urea formation, thus conserving nitrogen and reducing its loss in the urine. Growth, immune response, repair, and production of enzymes and hormones are all impaired in severe protein deficiency. Protein deficiency may also arise in the face of adequate protein intake if the protein is of poor quality (i.e., the content of one or more amino acids is inadequate and thus becomes the limiting factor in protein utilization).
