Responses of skeletal muscle protein turnover and amino acid concentration to unloading, denervation and immobilization.

The effects of denervation, non-weight bearing (unloading) or immobilization on hindlimb muscle growth, protein and amino acid metabolism were studied. In the first 3 days after denervation or unloading, atrophy of the soleus was caused by a suppression of protein synthesis and an acceleration of pr...
