Aging differentially affects human skeletal muscle amino acid transporter expression when essential amino acids are ingested after exercise

摘要

Background & AimsAmino acid transporters have been proposed as regulators of protein synthesis. The primary aim of this study was to determine whether amino acid transporter expression is increased in human muscle following resistance exercise (RE) coupled with essential amino acid (EAA) ingestion, and whether a differential response occurs with aging. Secondly, we aimed to compare this response to a previous study examining RE alone.
