Human skeletal muscle is refractory to the anabolic effects of leucine during the postprandial muscle-full period in older men
(2017)
Journal Article
Leucine modulates muscle protein synthesis (MPS), with potential to facilitate accrual/maintenance of muscle mass. Animal models suggest that leucine boluses shortly after meals may prolong MPS and delay onset of a “muscle-full” state. However, the e...
