Dampened Muscle mTORC1 Response Following Ingestion of High-Quality Plant-Based Protein and Insect Protein Compared to Whey

Increased amino acid availability acutely stimulates protein synthesis partially via activation of mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Plant-and insect-based protein sources matched for total protein and/or leucine to animal proteins induce a lower postprandial rise in amino acids, but their effects on mTOR activation in muscle are unknown. C57BL/6J mice were gavaged with different protein solutions: whey, a pea–rice protein mix matched for total protein or leucine content to whey, worm protein matched for total protein, or saline. Blood was drawn 30, 60, 105 and 150 min after gavage and muscle samples were harvested 60 min and 150 min after gavage to measure key components of the mTORC1 pathway. Ingestion of plant-based proteins induced a lower rise in blood leucine compared to whey, which coincided with a dampened mTORC1 activation, both acutely and 150 min after administration. Matching total leucine content to whey did not rescue the reduced rise in plasma amino acids, nor the lower increase in mTORC1 compared to whey. Insect protein elicits a similar activation of downstream mTORC1 kinases as plant-based proteins, despite lower postprandial aminoacidemia. The mTORC1 response following ingestion of high-quality plant-based and insect proteins is dampened compared to whey in mouse skeletal muscle.     

一种合成多肽——PLNG自由穿膜现象初探

目的 研究人工设计合成的多肽PLNG在不同作用环境条件下的跨膜运动现象。方法 体外培养不同组织来源的鼠细胞及CHO细胞、BEL细胞,用免疫荧光观察不同浓度、不同温度、不同反应时间条件下,PLNG的穿膜能力及PLNG对不同类型的细胞（CHO细胞、BEL细胞、成年大鼠肝细胞、幼大鼠肝细胞、成年大鼠心肌细胞、幼大鼠心肌细胞、成年大鼠神经细胞、幼大鼠神经细胞）的穿膜特性。结果 PLNG在不同作用环境条件下对细胞膜都有穿透作用,且进入细胞的量近乎相同。结论 实验观察到PLNG具有广谱的穿膜能力,这种穿膜能力在一定范围内对温度、时间及PLNG浓度不敏感;而且这种穿膜能力不受组织特异性的限制。

Effect of stimulation of Kupffer cells by prodigiosan on regeneration of hepatocytes

The effect of the polysaccharide ofBacillus prodigiosus (prodigiosan) on DNA synthesis and mitotic activity of the hepatocytes was studied in the regenerating liver of male Wistar rats. After administration of the stimulator in a dose of 50 g per rat 24 h before partial hepatectomy the indices of labeled nuclei and mitotic indices were higher and reached their maximum sooner in the hepatocytes in the experimental animals than in the controls. It is suggested that the stimulating effect of prodigiosan is connected with activation of the Kupffer cells of the liver.Laboratory of Pathophysiology, Institute of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, Siberian Branch, Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR, Novosibirsk.
