Conditions

Meat Protein Supplements, Muscle Protein Synthesis, Protein Absorption and Amino Acid Availability

Brief summary

To measure the absorption kinetics and postprandial amino acid availability after ingestion of minced beef compared with hydrolyzed beef in young males. Moreover, the basal muscle protein synthesis and the postprandial muscle protein synthetic response to minced beef and hydrolyzed beef ingestion are measured in young males. The postprandial muscle protein synthetic response is measured and compared during the early postprandial period (0-3 hours) after ingestion of the two meat products.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Change in skeletal muscle protein fractional synthetic rate	During the postprandial period (0-3 hrs).	The fractional synthetic rate of skeletal muscle proteins (%/h) measured during the overnight fasted state and the postprandial state.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Plasma amino acid concentration	During the postprandial period (0-3 hrs).	Change in venous plasma amino acid concentration after ingestion of meat protein.
Protein absorption	During the postprandial period (0-3 hrs).	The change in venous plasma ring-2H5-phenylalanine enrichment after ingestion of meat protein, reflects the protein absorption from the meat protein products.
