β-hydroxy-β-methyl butyrate, but not α-ketoisocaproate and excess leucine, stimulates skeletal muscle protein metabolism in growing pigs fed low-protein diets
This study aimed to investigate the effects of leucine (Leu) and its metabolites (α-ketoisocaproate (KIC) and β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate (HMB)) on muscle protein metabolism in growing pigs fed low-protein diets. 32 pigs (Large White × Landrace, 9.55 ± 0.19 kg) were divided into four groups (basal di...
