Skeletal Muscle Remodeling: Interconnections Between Stem Cells and Protein Turnover

Nicholas A Burd et al. Exerc Sport Sci Rev. 2017 Jul.

Abstract

Nutrition and exercise are important components of a healthy lifestyle to improve rates of hypertrophic and nonhypertrophic skeletal muscle remodeling. We provide evidence to support the hypothesis that muscle stem cells and protein turnover are collaborative, not separate, mechanisms supporting muscle remodeling by facilitating protein, nuclear, and cellular turnover in response to the ingestion of protein dense foods and exercise.
