Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dietary protein recommendations and the prevention of sarcopenia.

TL;DR: Clinicians should stress the importance of ingesting a sufficient amount of protein with each meal to preserve skeletal muscle mass in ageing and propose a novel and specific dietary approach to prevent or slow down muscle loss with ageing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resistance exercise increases AMPK activity and reduces 4E‐BP1 phosphorylation and protein synthesis in human skeletal muscle

TL;DR: It is concluded that AMPK activation and a reduced phosphorylation of 4E‐BP1 may contribute to the inhibition of muscle protein synthesis during resistance exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI

An oral essential amino acid-carbohydrate supplement enhances muscle protein anabolism after resistance exercise

TL;DR: It is concluded that essential amino acids with carbohydrates stimulate muscle protein anabolism by increasing muscle protein synthesis when ingested 1 or 3 h after resistance exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI

Timing of amino acid-carbohydrate ingestion alters anabolic response of muscle to resistance exercise

TL;DR: The results indicate that the response of net muscleprotein synthesis to consumption of an EAC solution immediately before resistance exercise is greater than that when the solution is consumed after exercise, primarily because of an increase in muscle protein synthesis as a result of increased delivery of amino acids to the leg.
