Oral amino acids stimulate muscle protein anabolism in the elderly despite higher first-pass splanchnic extraction
Abstract
Muscle protein synthesis and breakdown and amino acid transport were measured in 7 healthy young (30 ± 2 yr) and 8 healthy elderly (71 ± 2 yr) volunteers in the postabsorptive state and during the oral administration of an amino acid mixture withl-[ ring-2 H 5]phenylalanine infusion, femoral artery and vein catheterization, and muscle biopsies. Phenylalanine first-pass splanchnic extraction was measured by addingl-[ ring-13 C 6]phenylalanine to the mixture. In the postabsorptive state, no differences in muscle amino acid kinetics were detected between young and elderly volunteers. Phenylalanine first-pass splanchnic extraction was significantly higher in the elderly ( P < 0.003) during ingestion of amino acids, but the delivery to the leg increased to the same extent in both groups. Phenylalanine transport into the muscle, muscle protein synthesis, and net balance increased significantly ( P < 0.01) and similarly in both the young and the elderly. We conclude that, despite an increased splanchnic first-pass extraction, muscle protein anabolism can be stimulated by oral amino acids in the elderly as well as in the young.

“Aging has been shown to reduce the appearance of dietary amino acids in the systemic circulation during the postprandial period [24, 25], which could reduce their availability for uptake by skeletal muscle.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
