To further characterize the transport of phenylalanine and other large neutral amino acids across the blood-brain barrier in PKU patients with high and low brain vulnerability to elevated blood phenylalanine concentrations, we will investigate…
1. to determine whether the oxidation of BCAA (leucine) is impaired in patients with T2DM and in humans at risk to develop T2DM (first degree relatives). 2. to investigate whether an altered leucine oxidation in muscle is associated with insulin…
To determine whether the intake of minced beef is equally effective as ingestion of a bovine milk protein beverage in stimulating post resistance exercise muscle protein synthesis rates in young men.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a single bout of NMES on muscle protein synthesis rates in healthy elderly males.
1) To assess insulin sensitivity and response in critically ill septic neonates and children. 2) To determine protein balance in septic, critically ill children at baseline and during a Hyperinsulinemic Euglycemic Clamp, while receiving standard or…
Objective of the study:1) To assess insulin sensitivity and response in critically ill septic neonates and children.2) To determine protein balance in septic, critically ill children at baseline and during a HyperinsulinemicEuglycemic Clamp, while…
A reduction of the fasting period may prevent or reduce the rise in plasma Phe concentration. Therefore, the aim of the study is to measure the effect of the application of slow releasing carbohydrates (SRC) as evening meal before bedtime on the…
To assess the impact of short-term forearm immobilization on forearm muscle glucose uptake and amino acid net balance and kinetics of individuals with T2D compared with a control group with normoglycaemia.
To test whether our breath test differentiates between a baseline state and two different levels of exercise (15 minutes at 30% of VO2 max and 15 minutes at 60% of VO2 max) in 16 healthy volunteers, thereby confirming or denying that protein…
To study whether stable renal transplant patients show higher protein oxidation measured with the 13C-breath test as compared to healthy kidney donor subjects.
