研究概览
简要总结
This trial is an exploratory study in order to determine whether the ingestion of one type of protein (milk protein/CHO/Fat) vs.placebo (CHO/Fat) 2 hours before bed time results in the extension of the post-prandial window of anabolism during the night by increasing whole body protein balance as well as muscle protein fractional synthesis rate (FSR).

结局指标
主要结局
muscle FSR determination
时间窗: Within 24 hours of product intake
Muscle protein FSR (fractional synthesis rate) will be determined using primed constant infusions of \[13C6\] phenylalanine for 5 hours starting around from 03:00 a.m. (see flow chart attached). Whole body protein balance will be measured throughout the night using \[15N\]glycine (200mg) which will be orally taken with the trial product in the evening.
次要结局
- Activation of signaling pathways involved in skeletal muscle protein balance(Within 24 hours after product intake)
- Glucose metabolism(Within 24 hours after product intake)
- Plasma amino acid availability(Within 24 hours after product intake)
