Abstract
Excess dietary leucine can deplete the brain of its serotonin (5HT) content. Simultaneous isoleucine supplement can counteract the effect of leucine. Nicotinic acid and nicotinamide incorporation into the diet at physiological levels can also reverse leucine effects. These results are discussed in relation to altered mental function seen in endemic pellagra.
