A Low or High Physical Activity Level Does Not Modulate Prostate Tumor Tissue Protein Synthesis Rates Vrije Universiteit Brussel
INTRODUCTION: Physical activity level has been identified as an important factor in the development and progression of various types of cancer. In this study, we determined the impact of a low versus high physical activity level on skeletal muscle, healthy prostate, and prostate tumor protein synthesis rates in vivo in prostate cancer patients.
