Figure 1From: Regulation of protein degradation pathways by amino acids and insulin in skeletal muscle of neonatal pigsThe protein abundance of eIF4E and rpS6 in longissimus dorsi muscle in response to age and amino acids, insulin, and leucine infusion. (A) Muscle eIF4E abundance from experiment 1 during euinsulinemic-euglycemic-euaminoacidemic (control; C), euinsulinemic-euglycemic-hyperaminoacidemic (AA), and hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic-euaminoacidemic (INS) clamps for 2 h in 6- and 26-d-old pigs. (B) Muscle eIF4E abundance from experiment 2 during euinsulinemic-euglycemic-euaminoacidemic-euleucinemic (C), euinsulinemic-euglycemic-hypoaminoacidemic-hyperleucinemic (L), and euinsulinemic-euglycemic-euaminoacidemic-hyperleucinemic (L+AA) clamps for 24 h in 5-d-old pigs. (C) Muscle rpS6 abundance from experiment 1 during C, AA, and INS clamps for 2 h in 6- and 26-d-old pigs. (D) Muscle rpS6 abundance from experiment 2 during C, L, and L+AA clamps for 24 h in 5-d-old pigs. Data are normalized with β-actin abundance and are expressed in arbitrary units (AU). Values are means ± SEM, n = 4–7. Values not sharing common symbols differ significantly (P < 0.05).Back to article page
