To define the amount of dietary protein required to optimally stimulate post-exercise muscle protein synthesis in the older population.To assess whether co-ingesting 1.5 g of free leucine (contained within 15 g dairy protein) along with 15 g protein…
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…
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.
1a. Compare fat endocrine function in obese fit versus obese unfit people under resting conditions and immediately after exercise.1b. Compare fat endocrine function in non-obese fit versus non-obese unfit people under resting conditions and…
Primary Objective: To provide evidence for the efficacy of wheat protein and wheat protein hydrolysate when compared with milk proteins as a dietary protein to stimulate postprandial muscle protein synthesis in vivo in healthy older humans.…
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of a single meal-like amount of protein with or without fat on postprandial muscle protein synthesis in healthy elderly men. Furthermore, as a secondary objective, we will assess…
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of a meal-like amount of dietary protein prior to sleep on postprandial muscle protein synthesis in healthy young and elderly men, following exercise, during the night. Furthermore, as…
To gain a more complete scientific understanding, it is necessary to examine whether an adaptation does in fact occur after habitual high or low amounts of protein intake with regard to the anabolic response to subsequent protein intake. In the…
Correcting or preventing deficiencies of protein, by means of a protein supplement after a biliopancreatic diversion.
The primary objective of this clinical survey is to investigate the difference in morbidity and mortality after elective abdominal surgery for colon or rectal carcinoma in different age groups (55-75 years and older than 75 years).and to determine…
Based on this background information and our preliminary data in this project we aim to perform longitudinal study in cystinosis patients to correlate clinical course under cysteamine therapy and 1) Markers of macrophage activation in patients…
The influence of different levels of protein diet on protein oxidation measured by 13CO2 breath test
The aim of this study is to determine whether our 13CO2 breath test is discriminative for different protein diets in healthy young volunteers.
To examine the effect of a single session of whole-body NMES, with or without subsequent protein intake, on whole-body protein turnover
Effects of NMES on physical function and skeletal muscle mass
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.
