简要总结
The primary objective will be to determine the effect of leucine-enriched essential amino acids (LEAA) compared to carbohydrate placebo on dietary incorporation of [D5] Phenylalanine & [D5] Glycine into the three skeletal muscle protein pools (myofibrillar, sarcoplasmic and collagen), both following resistance exercise and at rest, with the two tracers provided as a 'intrinsically labeled' bolus. Other outcomes will relate to molecular regulation of protein synthesis.

- •Self-reported regular tobacco use.
- •Self-reported illicit drug use (e.g. growth hormone, testosterone, etc.).
- •Individuals who have participated in studies within the past year involving any of the stable isotopes in the study.

结局指标
主要结局
Myofibrillar Protein synthesis
时间窗: 4 hours
Rate of incorporation of orally ingested amino acid tracers (D5 Phe and D5 Gly) into myofibrillar proteins isolated from skeletal muscle biopsies 4h following drink (LEAA or PLA) consumption and resistance exercise or at rest. Enrichment will be quantified via tandem LC-MS/MS to derive a rate of incorporation over the 4h period.
次要结局
- Collagen protein synthesis(4 hours)
- Sarcoplasmic protein synthesis(4 hours)
- Protein localization via immunofluorescence(4 hours)
