A statistical and biological response to an informatics appraisal of healthy aging gene signatures (2019)
Journal Article
Timmons, J. A., Gallagher, I. J., Sood, S., Phillips, B., Crossland, H., Howard, R., …Atherton, P. J. (2019). A statistical and biological response to an informatics appraisal of healthy aging gene signatures. Genome Biology, 20(1), 1-4. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13059-019-1734-z

Jacob and Speed did not identify even a single example of a ‘150-gene-set’ that was statistically significant at classifying Alzheimer’s disease (AD) samples, or age in independent studies. We attempt to clarify the various misunderstandings, below. Read More about A statistical and biological response to an informatics appraisal of healthy aging gene signatures.

The effect of oral essential amino acids on incretin hormone production in youth and ageing (2019)
Journal Article
Abdulla, H., Bass, J., Stokes, T., Gorissen, S., McGlory, C., Phillips, B., …Atherton, P. (2019). The effect of oral essential amino acids on incretin hormone production in youth and ageing. Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, 2(4), Article e00085. https://doi.org/10.1002/edm2.85

Background The effect of substantive doses of essential amino acids (EAA) on incretin and insulin production, and the impact of age upon this effect, is ill‐defined. Methods A 15‐g oral EAA drink was administered to young (N = 8; 26 ± 4.4 years)... Read More about The effect of oral essential amino acids on incretin hormone production in youth and ageing.

Differential Stimulation of Post-Exercise Myofibrillar Protein Synthesis in Humans Following Isonitrogenous, Isocaloric Pre-Exercise Feeding (2019)
Journal Article
Davies, R. W., Bass, J. J., Carson, B. P., Norton, C., Kozior, M., Amigo-Benavent, M., …Jakeman, P. M. (2019). Differential Stimulation of Post-Exercise Myofibrillar Protein Synthesis in Humans Following Isonitrogenous, Isocaloric Pre-Exercise Feeding. Nutrients, 11(7), Article 1657. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu11071657

The aim of this study was to test the effects of two disparate isonitrogenous, isocaloric pre-exercise feeds on deuterium-oxide (D2O) derived measures of myofibrillar protein synthesis (myoPS) in humans. Methods: In a double-blind parallel group desi...

Gene-based analysis of angiogenesis, mitochondrial and insulin-related pathways in skeletal muscle of older individuals following nutraceutical supplementation (2019)
Journal Article
Crossland, H., Pereira, S. L., Smith, K., Phillips, B. E., & Atherton, P. J. (2019). Gene-based analysis of angiogenesis, mitochondrial and insulin-related pathways in skeletal muscle of older individuals following nutraceutical supplementation. Journal of Functional Foods, 56, 216-223. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jff.2019.03.022

Cocoa flavanols and fish oil omega-3 fatty acids are two bio-active nutrients that may improve muscle microvascular function, insulin sensitivity and mitochondrial function in older adults. We assessed changes in gene expression of these pathways in...
