Leucine minimizes denervation-induced skeletal muscle atrophy of rats through akt/mtor signaling pathways
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of leucine treatment (0.30 mM) on muscle weight and signaling of myoproteins related to synthesis and degradation pathways of soleus muscle following seven days of complete sciatic nerve lesion.Wistar rats (n=24) of 3 to 4 months of age (192 ±...
