Daily L-leucine supplementation in novice trainees during a 12-week weight training program. [PDF]
, 2011 PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of daily oral L-leucine ingestion on strength, bone mineral-free lean tissue mass (LTM) and fat mass (FM) of free living humans during a 12-wk resistance-training program. METHODS: Twenty-six initially untrained men (n

Leucine-enriched essential amino acid supplementation in mechanically ventilated trauma patients: a feasibility study [PDF]
, 2019 Background: Critically ill patients lose up to 2% of muscle mass per day. We assessed the feasibility of administering a leucine-enriched essential amino acid (L-EAA) supplement to mechanically ventilated trauma patients with the aim of assessing the ...

A conserved strategy for inducing appendage regeneration in moon jellyfish, Drosophila, and mice
eLife, 2021 Can limb regeneration be induced? Few have pursued this question, and an evolutionarily conserved strategy has yet to emerge. This study reports a strategy for inducing regenerative response in appendages, which works across three species that span the ...

Estimation of the leucine and histidine requirements for piglets fed a low-protein diet
Animal, 2016 Reduction of the CP content in the diets of piglets requires supplementation with crystalline essential amino acids (AA). Data on the leucine (Leu) and histidine (His) requirements of young pigs fed low-CP diets are limited and have primarily been ...
