The effect of milk consumption immediately following resistance exercise on protein degradation in untrained males before and after a 10-week resistance training protocol
… immediately after resistance exercise on muscle protein breakdown before and after a 10-week resistance training program. Nineteen untrained males, 18-25 years of age, consumed either a carbohydrate-electrolyte (CHO) or milk (MILK) beverage immediately after a strenuous leg resistance …

The effect of leucine and dileucine ingestion on muscle protein turnover in healthy young men
Skeletal muscle mass and quality, which is determined by day-to-day changes in muscle protein synthesis (MPS) and muscle protein breakdown rates (MPB), are important determinants of physical performance and metabolic health across all age groups. As such, identifying nutritional and exercise …

Effects of physical activity levels and nutritional intake on skeletal muscle protein turnover and cellular signaling
Loss of muscle mass is common in many clinical conditions such as cancer, AIDS, burns and paralysis as well as in aging. Decreased muscle mass can contribute to many other complications and co-morbidities related to diseases, trauma and aging including overall weakness, immobility, increased risk …

Effects of lower- and higher- volume resistance exercise on serum testosterone and skeletal muscle androgen receptor content in men : subsequent effects on the mRNA expression of insulin- like growth factor peptide and myostatin in skeletal muscle.
… elicits its effects. Specifically, skeletal muscle has androgen receptors present and is responsive to testosterone. The resulting activation of testosterone–androgen receptor–DNA binding increases muscle protein synthesis and reduces muscle protein breakdown. In addition, the testosterone …

Essential Amino Acid (EAA) Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Protein Turnover with Age
<p>Skeletal muscle (SM) is vital for both long term health and quality of life. Recent research suggests an increase in catabolic signals with age triggers pathologic conditions, such as sarcopenia. Although results from in vitro studies model how EAA can regulate muscle protein synthesis (MPS), …

Effect of Carbohydrate-Protein Beverage on Glycogen Resynthesis and Muscle Damage Induced By Eccentric Resistance Exercise
… effects of carbohydrate (C), carbohydrate-protein (CP), or placebo (P) beverages following eccentric resistance exercise on muscle damage by serum creatine kinase (CK), muscle protein breakdown by urinary 3-methylhistidine (3MH), muscle soreness, isokinetic muscle strength, muscle glycogen …

Plasma amino acid and metabolite changes in pigs during endotoxemia
… historically been used as an indirect marker of muscle protein breakdown in rodents and humans. However, the major form (i.e., free or acetylated) of NτMH in pig plasma was unknown. Results indicate that only 15% of plasma NτMH is in the free form and the remainder is acetylated. Furthermore, LPS …

Purification and characterisation of two cancer cachexia factors
… material revealed an identity to Zn-α-2-glycoprotein, the significance of which is discussed. An additional factor, first detected as a result of its specific reactivity with a monoclonal antibody produced by fusion of splenocytes from MAC 16 tumour-bearing mice with mouse BALB/c myeloma …

Transport and exchange of amino acids from plasma, erythrocytes, peptides and serum proteins across the hindlimb of calves fed soy or urea purified diets
… free amino acids and plasma peptide and serum protein amino acid concentrations and arteriovenous (A/V) differences across the hindlimbs were determined on growing Holstein steer calves (130 kg) fed purified diets containing scy protein or urea as the sole source of dietary nitrogen. Animals …
