Effect of rhythmic alternation of protein depletion and repletion on serum protein synthesis.
The authors attempted to determine whether repeated protein depletion would produce changes in the organism's response to this unfavourable situation indicative of the preservation of information on past depletion and of its inclusion in the formation of the organism's defences against repetition of this unphysiological state. It can be concluded from the results that the anticipated trend was demonstrated. The question of the site of origin, storage and action of this information was not resolved.
