Journal ArticleDOI

The role of leucine and its metabolites in protein and energy metabolism

TL;DR: Both α-KIC and HMB have recently received considerable attention as nutritional supplements used to increase protein synthesis, inhibit protein degradation, and regulate energy homeostasis in a variety of in vitro and in vivo models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myokines and adipokines: Involvement in the crosstalk between skeletal muscle and adipose tissue.

TL;DR: The roles of and crosstalk between myokines and adipokines in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue that modulate the molecular events in the metabolic homeostasis of the whole body are focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of dietary arginine supplementation on reproductive performance of mice with porcine circovirus type 2 infection

TL;DR: Arginine supplementation partially reversed the reproductive failure in mice caused by PCV2 infection, and litter number, litter birth weight and the daily weight gain of neonates increased in the arginine group compared to the control group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of dietary n-6:n-3 PUFA ratio on fatty acid composition, free amino acid profile and gene expression of transporters in finishing pigs

TL;DR: Keeping the dietary n-6:n-3 PUFA ratios of 1:1-5:1 would facilitate the absorption and utilisation of fatty acids and free amino acids, and result in improved muscle and adipose composition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nutritional and regulatory roles of leucine in muscle growth and fat reduction.

TL;DR: Leucine activates the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, including the 70 kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 (S6K1) and eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4E-binding protein 1 (4EBP1) to stimulate protein synthesis in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue and to promote mitochondrial biogenesis, resulting in enhanced cellular respiration and energy partitioning.
