Researchers at Leipzig University and Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg have investigated a previously unknown ...

Colostrum is a complex source of nutrients, immune factors, and bioactive substances consumed by newborn mammals. In previous work, we observed that protein synthesis in the skeletal muscle of newborn ...

A new study asked three questions about muscle protein synthesis in response to a nine-day diet and weight training regimen: First, does the source of protein - plant or animal-based - make any ...

Imagine a cancer treatment that precisely targets malignant cells, leaving healthy ones untouched. Consider, also, a cancer treatment that corrects abnormal protein synthesis to produce healthy ...

Collaborative research by the University of Tokyo and RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research has led to the ...

Among today's rapidly growing fields of biological study are those focusing on neurotransmitters, hormones, and various immunological and pharmacological agents. Central in many of these ...

A top fitness researcher sets the record straight on protein absorption, muscle protein synthesis, and how to actually fuel growth. One of the most tried and true ways to build muscle and drop body ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a previously unrecognized role of mitochondrial protein synthesis in the maintenance of intracellular iron distribution. Disruption of this process was found to ...

A study on how aging impacts the brain in killifish has found that getting old selectively impairs the production of some key DNA- and RNA-binding proteins. And this change contributes to hallmarks of ...

Debunking the popular myth, Dr. Kash Akhtar clarifies that the body can absorb protein beyond 30 grams per meal. While muscle protein synthesis is maximized with 25-40 grams, excess protein supports ...
