Abstract

We investigated the effects of graded hyperaminoacidemia on protein metabolism in eight healthy, young (25 +/- 2 years), normal weight (BMI = 25 +/- 1 kg/m2), overnight-fasted human subjects. A balanced amino acid solution was infused for 180 min at five different rates: 0.5 (study I), 1.0 (study II), 2.0 (study III), 4.0 (study IV). and 6.0 (study V) mg x kg-1 x min-1 on separate days in random order. Studies were performed with [1-14C]leucine infusion and indirect calorimetry to calculate leucine oxidation (LOX), nonoxidative leucine disposal (NOLD) (an index of protein synthesis), and endogenous leucine flux (ELF) (an index of proteolysis). Basal total plasma amino acid concentrations averaged 1.85 +/- 0.1 mmol/l and increased to 2.27 +/- 0.1, 2.70 +/- 0.2, 3.84 +/- 0.2, 5.87 +/- 0.4, and 7.52 +/- 0.3 mmol/l in studies I-V, respectively. ELF decreased from a basal value of 2.27 +/- 0.2 to 2.12 +/- 0.2, 1.97 +/- 0.1, 1.73 +/- 0.2, 1.67 +/- 0.3, and 1.65 +/- 0.1 micromol x kg-1 x min-1 in studies I-V, respectively (P < 0.05 for study I vs. basal, P < 0.01 for studies II-V vs. basal, and NS for studies IV and V vs. study III). LOX increased from a basal value of 0.31 +/- 0.04 to 0.38 +/- 0.05, 0.41 +/- 0.02, 0.64 +/- 0.04, 1.11...Continue Reading
