Molecular
Phosphorylation of p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K) is elevated after resistance exercise with protein ingestion.
Increased p70S6K phosphorylation indicates enhanced signaling for muscle growth post-exercise.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Phosphorylation of p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K) was elevated (P<0.05) above fasted at 1 h at rest whereas it was elevated at 1, 3 and 5 h after exercise with protein ingestion.
Why this rating
Based on study design from abstract.
