As Wikipidia define, Glutamine (abbreviated as Gln or Q) is one of the 20 amino acids encoded by the standard genetic code. Its side-chain is an amide formed by replacing the side-chain hydroxyl of glutamic acid with an amine functional group. Therefore, it can be considered the amide of glutamic acid. Its codons are CAA and CAG. In human blood, glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid, with a concentration of about 500-900 µmol/l.

Betain structure
Glutamine zwitterionic forms at neutral pH: L-glutamine (left) and D-glutamine (right)
Functions
Glutamine plays a role in a variety of biochemical functions including:
* Protein synthesis, as any other amino acid.
* Regulation of acid-base balance in the kidney by producing ammonium.
* Cellular energy, as a source, next to glucose.
* Nitrogen donation for many anabolic processes.
* Carbon donation, as a source, refilling the citric acid cycle.
Producing and consuming organs
Producers
Glutamine is synthesized by the enzyme glutamine synthetase from glutamate and ammonia. The most relevant glutamine-producing tissue is the muscle mass, accounting for about 90% of all glutamine synthesized. Glutamine is also released, in small amounts, by the lung and the brain. Although the liver is capable of relevant glutamine synthesis, its role in glutamine metabolism is more regulatory than producing, since the liver takes up large amounts of glutamine derived from the gut.
The most eager consumers of glutamine are the cells of intestines, the kidney cells for the acid base balance, activated immune cells and many cancer cells. In respect to the last point mentioned, different glutamine analogues such as DON, Azaserine or Acivicin are tested as anti-cancer drugs.
Examples for the usage of glutamine
In catabolic states of injury and illness, glutamine becomes conditionally-essential (requiring intake from food or supplements). Glutamine has been studied extensively over the past 10–15 years and has been shown to be useful in treatment of serious illnesses, injury, trauma, burns, and treatment-related side-effects of cancer as well as in wound healing for postoperative patients. Glutamine is also marketed as a supplement used for muscle growth in weightlifting, bodybuilding, endurance, and other sports. Evidence indicates that glutamine when orally loaded may increase plasma HGH levels by stimulating the anterior pitutitary gland. . In biological research, L-glutamine is commonly added to the media in cell culture.
Aiding recovery after surgery
It is also known that glutamine has various effects in reducing healing time after operations. Hospital-stay times after abdominal surgery can be reduced by providing parenteral nutrition regimes containing high amounts of glutamine to patients. Clinical trials have revealed that patients on supplementation regimes containing glutamine have improved nitrogen balances, generation of cysteinyl-leukotrienes from polymorphonuclear neutrophil granulocytes, and improved lymphocyte recovery and intestinal permeability (in postoperative patients), in comparison to those that had no glutamine within their dietary regime, all without any side-effects.
Nutrition
Occurrences in nature
Glutamine is the most abundant naturally occurring, non-essential amino acid in the human body and one of the few amino acids that directly cross the blood-brain barrier. In the body, it is found circulating in the blood as well as stored in the skeletal muscles. It becomes conditionally essential (requiring intake from food or supplements) in states of illness or injury.
Dietary sources of L-glutamine include beef, chicken, fish, eggs, milk, dairy products, wheat, cabbage, beets, beans, spinach, and parsley. Small amounts of free L-glutamine are also found in vegetable juices and fermented foods, such as miso.
Aiding gastrointestinal function
This section may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia’s quality standards. Please improve this section if you can. (December 2008)
In recent studies, glutamine-enriched diets have been linked with intestinal effects including maintenance of gut barrier function and cell differentiation. This may relate to the fact that the intestinal extraction rate of glutamine is higher than that for other amino acids, and is therefore thought to be the most viable option when attempting to alleviate conditions relating to the gastrointestinal tract. These conditions were discovered within the gut between glutamine-enriched and non-glutamine-enriched diets. However, even though glutamine is thought to have “cleansing” properties and effects, it is unknown to what extent glutamine has clinical benefits, due to the varied concentrations of glutamine in varieties of food.

4 Life Research is a company that develops and sells products that are designed to enhance one’s immune system, leading to longer and higher quality lives for people. 4 Life Research claims that its one of a kind and patented line of Transferceutical products can enhance one’s immune system by as much as 437%.
The research suggests that the 4Life Transfer Factor Tri-Factor Formula strengthens the body’s immune system through the increasing of the number of protective IgA antibodies in the bloodstream. 4 Life Research maintains a company Health Sciences Advisory Board which is made up of dozens of health and nutrition experts, doctors, and research scientists from all around the world in order to continue its R & D efforts. They also maintain the Foundation 4Life charitable organization which they founded in 2006.
4 Life Research traces its origins back to 1949 when Dr. H. Sherwood Lawrence, who was a distinguished immunologist at New York University, concluded that a donor could transfer an immune response to a recipient by way of a white blood cell extract. He determined that this was so because the extract contained a factor that had the capability of transferring the donors immunity information to the recipient. He called this substance the “transfer factor”.
Since that time, plenty of scientific research has been done to see if Dr. Lawrence’s theory was correct about transfer factors. Since 1950 approximately $40 million has been spent researching Transfer Factors, with many hundreds of scientific papers being published that do document their effectiveness.
Then in the early 1990s, David Lisonbee began his research. By 1997 the future 4 Life Research fonder and CEO had unearthed hundreds of studies concerning transfer factors, including some of the 1949 research from Dr. H. Sherwood Lawrence. In 1998 he and his wife Bianca licensed the first patent and and brought 4Life Transfer Factor Classic to market while opening up the first 4Life office in Orem, Utah.
David earned his bachelors and MBA degrees from Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, and has been given the I.N. Blokhina Award from the Russian Federation because of his commitment to Transfer Factor research, patenting, and innovative production methods. 4 Life Research now has numerous patented products and numerous offices open around the world including in Columbia and India.
In addition to its cutting edge research into the Transfer Factor and its patented Transferceuticals, 4 Life Research presents people with an entrepreneurial business opportunity. They call this the “building people through success” opportunity.
Essentially, it is a home-based affiliate marketing opportunity, and this is the way that the company currently markets and sells its products. David and Bianca have gotten 4 Life Research placed 15th on “Inc.” magazines fastest-growing privately-held company list, and 4 Life offers some of the most generous affiliate commissions in the affiliate marketing industry.
4 Life Research is doing good work for people and their business opportunity and their products should be checked out.

A preliminary scientific test suggests that 4Life Transfer Factor® Tri-Factor® Formula strengthens your immune system guard by increasing the number of protective IgA antibodies.
4Life® got its start in the early 1990s when David Lisonbee, CEO and Founder, unearthed an obscure reference to a patent for something called Transfer Factors. Transfer Factors aren’t vitamins, minerals, herbs, or fruit. They’re messenger molecules that teach immune cells what they ought to be doing.
Transfer Factor molecules are completely unique. They contain information that can be transferred from one immune system to another. That means that your body can borrow the immune education it needs to Recognize, Respond to, and Remember unwanted threats. 4Life Transferceutical™ Products truly provide the ultimate in immune system support.
When it comes to immune system research, 4Life took the lead in 1998 and never let go. We’ve created a new category of immune system research called Transferceutical ™Science. Our science is backed up with multiple patents – and studies that show a record-breaking 437 percent boost in immune cell activity.
4Life leads the way in Transferceutical™ Science. We’re constantly breaking new ground and looking for new ways that we can provide immune system support for you. Our latest innovations, the Tri-Factor™ Formulas, both boost and balance the immune system, aiming for optimal regulation.
How do you get physicians, immune science experts, and Ph.D.s working for you 24/7? You bring your research and development team in house. We’ve also enlisted the expertise of dozens of physicians and nutrition experts worldwide, all members of 4Life’s Health Sciences Advisory Board.
4Life is the leader in Transferceutical™ Science, but really, it’s about showing the world just how good healthy can feel. When your immune system is working well, your body has energy to focus on other activities… like running after your four-year-old or getting a basketball game in after work.
4Life executives are pleased to announce that 4Life Transfer Factor® products are listed in the 2011 Physician’s Desk Reference (PDR).
