Abstract:
The study tested the hypothesis that a higher rate of myofibrillar than sarcoplasmic protein synthesis is responsible for the rapid postdifferentiation accumulation of myofibrils and that an inadequate nutrient intake will compromise primarily myofibrillar protein synthesis. Myofibrillar (total and individual) and sarcoplasmic protein synthesis, accretion, and degradation rates were measured in vivo in well-nourished (C) rat pups at 6, 15, and 28 days of age and compared at 6 and 15 days of age with pups undernourished (UN) from birth. In 6-day-old C pups, a higher myofibrillar than sarcoplasm

We tested the hypothesis that healthy older men (> 60 yr old) have a slower rate of myofibrillar protein synthesis than young men (< 35 yr old). Myofibrillar protein synthesis was determined by the in vivo incorporation of L-[1-13C]leucine into myofibrillar proteins obtained by muscle biopsy. Subjects were eight young (21-31 yr) and eight older (62-81 yr) men, all healthy and moderately active. There was no significant difference in the mean height and weight of the two age groups, but the older group had 12% less lean body mass (determined by 40K counting) and 21% less muscle mass (esti

Knocking out myostatin activity during development increases the rate of muscle protein synthesis.

Myostatin activity was inhibited for 4 days, in 4- to 5-mo-old male mice, with injections of an anti-myostatin antibody (JA16).

It is unclear whether the muscle hypertrophy induced by loss of myostatin signaling in mature muscles is maintained only by increased protein synthesis or whether reduced proteolysis contributes.

The rate of phenylalanine tracer incorporation into myofibrillar proteins was determined 2, 5, and 24 wk after Cre activation ended.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives The muscle protein synthetic response to the ingestion of animal based proteins has been reported to be superior to the ingestion of plant based proteins. The lesser anabolic properties of plant based compared with animal based proteins has been attributed to differences in essential amino acid (EAA) contents and amino acid composition. This study compares post-prandial muscle protein synthesis rates following the ingestion of 30 g milk protein with the ingestion of 30 g corn protein or a blend of 30 g corn and milk protein in vivo, in young males.

Abstract:
Muscle disuse results in the loss of muscular strength and size, due to an imbalance between protein synthesis (MPS) and breakdown (MPB). Protein ingestion stimulates MPS, although it is not established if protein is able to attenuate muscle loss with immobilization (IM) or influence the recovery consisting of ambulatory movement followed by resistance training (RT). Thirty men (49.9 ± 0.6 yr) underwent 14 days of unilateral leg IM, 14 days of ambulatory recovery (AR), and a further six RT sessions over 14 days. Participants were randomized to consume an additional 20 g of dairy protein or pla

Chronic resistance training induces increases in muscle fibre cross-sectional area (CSA), otherwise known as hypertrophy. This is due to an increased volume percentage of myofibrillar proteins within a given fibre. The exact time-course for muscle fibre hypertrophy is not well-documented but appears to require at least 6-7 weeks of regular resistive training at reasonably high intensity before increases in fibre CSA are deemed significant. Proposed training-induced changes in neural drive are hypothesized to increase strength due to increased synchrony of motor unit firing, reduced antagonist
