Excess leucine intake enhances muscle
anabolic signaling but not net protein anabolism in young men and women
It inhibits
anabolic signaling pathways when cellular ATP levels are decreased and AMP levels increase in response to limited energy availability (31).
So, there's evidence in older people that omega - 3s boost
anabolic signaling and help promote muscle growth.
Even more encouraging, this study showed omega - 3s boost
anabolic signaling and muscle growth in healthy, young adults as well.
I can see how a longer course of
anabolic signaling could translate to longer duration of strength and mass gains during long periods of detraining.
«Supplementation of leucine and whey protein immediately after heavy resistance exercise increases
anabolic signaling in human skeletal muscle.»
Cuthbertson, D et al. 2004
Anabolic signaling deficits underlie amino acid resistance of wasting, aging muscle.
Interestingly, chlorella's protein is relatively high in leucine, which is a branched - chain amino acid (BCAA) and the most important amino for muscle growth, as it turns on
anabolic signaling in the body.
Minimal dose of milk protein concentrate to enhance
the anabolic signalling response to a single bout of resistance exercise; a randomised controlled trial.
Post-exercise cold water immersion attenuates acute
anabolic signalling and long - term adaptations in muscle to strength training.
This is known as cellular swelling and has also been shown to be
an anabolic signal for muscle growth.
Metabolic by - products act as
an anabolic signal, telling your body to increase size and strength.
Rennie MJ, Bohe J, Smith K, Wackerhage H, Greenhaff P. Branched - chain amino acids as fuels and
anabolic signals in human muscle.
In conclusion, aging causes the loss of many of
the anabolic signals and an increase in catabolic signals to muscle that are present in young adulthood, but this study suggests that whey protein, essential amino acid, and vitamin D supplementation, together with gentle physical activity, can produce changes in catabolic mediators, lowering inflammatory markers such as CRP, and improving anabolic markers such as IGF - I.
It is enough for this argument that as a nutrient, protein elicits
an anabolic signal of muscle protein accretion in humans.
As mentioned, leucine is
an anabolic signal for muscle growth.
This causes a build - up of waste products in the localized muscle tissue, which is a STRONG
anabolic signal in the body for muscle growth.
Research shows the muscles of older people are less sensitive to
anabolic signals that tell them to grow, a phenomenon called anabolic resistance.

The augmented
anabolic response to amino acids and insulin was shown to be due to an increased activation of the mTOR / p70S6K
