Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive assessment of mitochondrial protein synthesis and cellular proliferation with age and caloric restriction

TL;DR: The authors found that 40% CR would decrease mitochondrial protein synthesis and would be regulated by translational rather than transcriptional mechanisms, but it is not clear why CR increases an energetically costly biosynthetic process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term synthesis rates of skeletal muscle DNA and protein are higher during aerobic training in older humans than in sedentary young subjects but are not altered by protein supplementation

TL;DR: It is concluded that postexercise protein supplementation does not increase rates of mixed protein synthesis over 6 wk and that aerobic exercise may stimulate long‐term cell division (DNA synthesis) in skeletal muscle of humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metformin inhibits mitochondrial adaptations to aerobic exercise training in older adults

TL;DR: The hypothesis that metformin diminishes the improvement in insulin sensitivity and cardiorespiratory fitness after aerobic exercise training (AET) by inhibiting skeletal muscle mitochondrial respiration and protein synthesis in older adults is tested.
