The roles of ageing and physical activity in determining the anabolic response to amino acids in skeletal muscle

Ageing is associated with a progressive loss of muscle mass termed sarcopenia, increasing morbidity and mortality. The mechanisms underpinning sarcopenia are unclear, but a blunted anabolic response of skeletal muscle to amino acids (AAs) after nutrient ingestion is undoubtedly a major contributing...
