Biography

Laboratory of Neuroproteomics, Department of Biochemistry and Tissue Biology,  Leucine-supplemented diet can recover lean body mass and preserve muscle protein mass. Additionally, physical exercise can be an excellent alternative to improve the rehabilitation of cancer patients. Knowing these facts, we examined the effects of a leucine-rich diet

Leucine-Rich Diet and Light Aerobic Training Modulate GLUT4 Expression And Increase the Glycogen Content in the Gastrocnemius Muscle of Walker-256 Tumour-Bearing Rats

The intense mobilisation of substrates during cancer induces the loss of body mass, which mainly results from the depletion of muscle protein due to increased proteolysis and/or decreased protein synthesis, leading to cachexia. Leucine is also used as an energy source and as a cell-signalling molecule by skeletal muscle. Additionally, physical activity increases glucose consumption, which reduces the levels of circulati... view moreĀ»
