Resistance training increases myofibrillar protein synthesis in middle-to-older aged adults consuming a typical diet with no influence of protein source: a randomized controlled trial.
The primary protein source of a diet may impact skeletal muscle maintenance with advancing age. The impact of the animal and plant protein content of …

Postprandial plasma amino acid and appetite responses to a low protein breakfast supplemented with whey or pea protein in middle-to-older aged adults - European Journal of Nutrition
The addition of low-dose protein to low protein-containing meals in middle-to-older aged adults may promote greater postprandial plasma aminoacidemia and mitigate declines in muscle health but may be ...

Our latest @nihr.bsky.social Birmingham BRC work: Accelerated aging of skeletal muscle and the immune system in patients with chronic liver disease.
Moving closer to the driving mechanisms of #frailty, #sarcopenia, and impaired immune function in CLD patients.

Accelerated aging of skeletal muscle and the immune system in patients with chronic liver disease - Experimental & Molecular Medicine
Chronic liver disease, a long-term condition damaging the liver, is causing more deaths worldwide. Patients often develop immune dysfunction and sarcopenia. This study aimed to see if CLD patients sho...

Ahhhh…this feels like Twitter circa 2022. No cesspool of hate and misinformation.
Happy to be here to share what we’re up to in all things skeletal muscle metabolism research. Hoping to reconnect with contacts from ‘that’ other channel.
