Enteral Leucine Supplementation Increases Protein Synthesis in Skeletal and Cardiac Muscles and Visceral Tissues of Neonatal Pigs through mTORC1-dependent Pathways
Leucine (Leu) activates mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) to upregulate protein synthesis (PS). To examine enteral Leu effects on PS and signaling activation, 5-d-old piglets were fed for 24 h diets containing: 1) low protein (LP), 2) LP supplemented with Leu (LP+L), or 3) high protein (HP). PS i...
