Delighted to share our latest work in Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle : Short-term disuse does not affect postabsorptive or postprandial muscle protein fractional breakdown rates. With @marloudirks Benjamin T Wall UoE_NPG onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jc…

Check out our latest publication led by George Pavis in Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle looking into muscle protein fractional breakdown rates after short -term disuse

🏆🎉Congratulations to our brilliant colleague Marianna Apicella for winning the Early Career Investigator Award at the National Women's Physiology and Nutrition Symposium hosted by LJMU Sport Science Liverpool John Moores University. Your groundbreaking work is paving the way for future #femalephysiology research.


Very happy and proud to share my first publication UoE_NPG Phys Reports The Physiological Society We looked into the leucine threshold and leucine trigger concepts to determine if there is an association between dietary leucine and post exercise muscle protein synthesis physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.14814/p…

New in AJP-Endocrinology and Metabolism: Sam West et al. showed that three non-animal derived #protein sources have utility in supporting post-exercise muscle reconditioning. ow.ly/sCG750PsNxT University of Exeter UTMB Health #mycoprotein #peaprotein #resistanceexercise



New in the AJP-Endocrinology and Metabolism September issue! Ingestion of #mycoprotein, pea protein, and their blend support comparable #postexercise myofibrillar protein synthesis rates in resistance-trained individuals (West et al.) LINK: ow.ly/b85c50PKfip #peaprotein #proteinblend


Another Publication along the Algae theme!! 🎉This time our colleague @inovdheijden investigated the impact of algae on muscle protein synthesis. Published in American Society for Nutrition Journals et al: Benjamin T Wall Prof F. Stephens Sam West Dr A. Monteyne 👇👇 jn.nutrition.org/article/S0022-…

Publication alert! 🎉Congrats to our colleague @inovdheijden for publishing a paper investigating non-animal derived protein sources on plasma AA kinetics in the journal BJN Nutrition Society Publications et al: Benjamin T Wall, Prof F.B Stephens, Sam West doi.org/10.1017/S00071…



New work led by Alistair Monteyne from our group UoE_NPG at University of Exeter Faculty of Health & Life Sci musing on how recent data inform on the role of dietary leucine in regulating muscle protein synthesis, just published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
