In Vitro and In Vivo Effects of Leucine on Skeletal Muscle Protein Synthesis and Degradation
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe regulatory role of leucine in skeletal muscle protein synthesis and degradation was examined using in vitro and in vivo experimental methods. Two skeletal muscles from young Sprague-Dawley rats were used in all experiments. These muscles were the soleus, a slow-twitch, oxidative muscle and the extensor digitorum longus (EDL), a fast-twitch, glycolytic muscle.
