Nutritional and pathophysiological modulation of body protein.
This review deals with recent developments in methodology and the effects of nutrition, hormonal modulation and muscular activity on changes in lean body mass and protein turnover in the whole body and in muscle. It also deals with organ-specific protein metabolism of the splanchnic region, particularly the gut, liver and kidney.
