Calorie restriction increases muscle mitochondrial biogenesis in healthy humans.

TL;DR: The observed increase in muscle mitochondrial DNA in association with a decrease in whole body oxygen consumption and DNA damage suggests that caloric restriction improves mitochondrial function in young non-obese adults.

Whey protein stimulates postprandial muscle protein accretion more effectively than do casein and casein hydrolysate in older men

TL;DR: Whey protein stimulates postprandial muscle protein accretion more effectively than do casein and casein hydrolysate in older men, attributed to a combination of whey's faster digestion and absorption kinetics and higher leucine content.

Fiber type composition of the vastus lateralis muscle of young men and women.

TL;DR: Gender differences were found with regard to the area occupied by each specific fiber type: IIA>I>IIB for the men and I>IIA>IIA for the women.

Amino acid ingestion improves muscle protein synthesis in the young and elderly

TL;DR: Despite differences in the time course of plasma phenylalanine kinetics and a greater residual IC phenylAlanine concentration, amino acid supplementation acutely stimulated muscle protein synthesis in both young and elderly individuals.

Satellite cell content is specifically reduced in type II skeletal muscle fibers in the elderly

TL;DR: This study is the first to show type II fiber atrophy in the elderly to be associated with a fiber type-specific decline in SC content, which is evident when SC content is expressed per fiber or per fiber area.

Diet, Muscle Glycogen and Physical Performance

TL;DR: It has been shown that the glycogen content and, consequently, the long-term work capacity can be appreciably varied by instituting different diets after glycogen depletion.

Glycogen, glycolytic intermediates and high-energy phosphates determined in biopsy samples of musculus quadriceps femoris of man at rest. Methods and variance of values.

TL;DR: Variation in muscle content of ATP, ATP + ADP + AMP, phosphorylcreatine (PC), creatine (Cr), PC + Cr, and glycogen, between legs, between sites on the same muscle, or as a result of error introduced during analysis, was small compared with the between-individuals variance.

Selective glycogen depletion pattern in human muscle fibres after exercise of varying intensity and at varying pedalling rates

TL;DR: Glycogen depletion pattern in human skeletal muscle fibres was studied after bicycle exercise of varying intensity performed at different pedalling rates.

TL;DR: Goldstein1 has shown that a humoral factor, which decreases the blood glucose concentration, is released during exercise and it is known that the insulin requirement decreases in diabetic subjects during exercise.
