A novel stable isotope tracer method to simultaneously quantify skeletal muscle protein synthesis and breakdown

Background/aims: Methodological challenges have been associated with the dynamic measurement of muscle protein breakdown (MPB), as have the measurement of both muscle protein synthesis (MPS) and MPB within the same experiment. Our aim was to use the transmethylation properties of methionine as proof...
