Dose-response effects of dietary protein on muscle protein synthesis during recovery from endurance exercise in young men Vrije Universiteit Brussel
BACKGROUND: Protein ingestion increases skeletal muscle protein synthesis rates during recovery from endurance exercise.
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to determine the effect of graded doses of dietary protein co-ingested with carbohydrate on whole-body protein metabolism, and skeletal muscle myofibrillar (MyoPS) and mitochondrial (MitoPS) protein synthesis rates during recovery from endurance exercise.
METHODS: In a randomized, ...
Six weeks of strength endurance training decreases circulating senescence-prone T-lymphocytes in cytomegalovirus seropositive but not seronegative older women Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Background: Ageing is associated with a decline in immune function termed immunosenescence. This process is characterized amongst others by less naive T-cells and more senescent phenotypes, which have been implicated in the pathogenesis of many age-related diseases. Thus far, reports regarding the long-term adaptation effects of exercise on T-cell phenotypes are scant and largely equivocal. These inconsistencies may be due to potential ...
