... mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) muscle protein synthesis n −3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) p70 S6 kinase (p70S6K) Glucose rate of appearance in plasma during basal conditions and the clamp procedure was calculated by dividing the glucose tracer infusion rate by the average plasma glucose...

... synthesis in muscle and liver. Correspondence: Dr Giuseppe Caso (email [email protected] ). The rate of muscle protein synthesis [FSR (fractional synthesis rate)], expressed as a proportion of muscle protein, was calculated with the formula [ 12 , 13 , 17 ]: where Ep1−Ep0...

... correlation between the serum concentration of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist and stage of disease ( P = 0.03). However, the serum concentration of the soluble TNFα receptor type 2 was most predictive of an inability of muscle protein synthesis to respond anabolically to growth hormone ( r = -0.42, P...

...W. M. Bennet; A. A. Connacher; C. M. Scrimgeour; K. Smith; M. J. Rennie 1. Anterior tibial muscle protein synthesis in seven healthy postabsorptive men was determined from increases in muscle protein bound leucine enrichment during a primed continuous infusion of l -[1 −13 C]leucine. Biopsies were...
