BACKGROUND Dairy proteins, in particular the whey fraction, exert insulinogenic properties and facilitate glycemic regulation through a mechanism involving elevation of certain plasma amino acids, and stimulation of incretins. Human milk is rich in whey protein and has not been investigated in this respect. METHOD Nine healthy volunteers were served test meals consisting of human milk, bovine...

Background Recently, our studies have shown that co-ingestion of carbohydrate and whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) is more effective for increasing post-exercise skeletal muscle glycogen content than ingestion of other protein sources (whey protein, casein hydrolysate, or branched chain amino acids). We have also shown that chronic feeding of whey protein increases glycogen contents in skeletal m...

BACKGROUND Higher dietary energy as protein during weight loss results in a greater loss of fat mass and retention of muscle mass; however, the impact of protein quality on the rates of myofibrillar protein synthesis (MPS) and lipolysis, processes that are important in the maintenance of muscle and loss of fat, respectively, are unknown. OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine how the consumption of ...

BACKGROUND Protein quantity and quality at a meal affect muscle protein synthesis (MPS); however, long-term effects of protein distribution at individual meals on adult muscle mass remain unknown. OBJECTIVE We used a precise feeding protocol in adult rats to determine if optimizing postmeal MPS response by modifying the meal distribution of protein, and the amino acid leucine (Leu), would aff...

Tumor Ag NY-ESO-1 is an attractive target for immunotherapy of cancer, since both CD8(+) CTL and CD4(+) Th cells against NY-ESO-1 have been described. Moreover, NY-ESO-1 as well as the highly homologous tumor Ag LAGE-1 are broadly expressed in various tumor types. Interestingly, the NY-ESO-1 and LAGE-1 genes also encode for proteins translated in an alternative open reading frame. These alterna...
