Study Summary

A hallmark of muscle changes in obesity is an altered muscle fiber type profile, characterized by a reduced proportion of Type I fibers - a shift associated with adverse obesity-related health outcomes. This alteration can be linked to changes in the expression of myosin heavy chain (MHC) protein isoforms in the skeletal muscle of individuals with obesity. The investigators aim to modulate the metabolism of muscle MHC isoforms to uncover the biological mechanisms underlying this disrupted expression pattern in muscle of humans with obesity.

Primary Outcome

Protein synthesis rates in whole muscle were quantified as the fractional synthesis rate (FSR), expressed as %/hour - representing the percentage of the entire muscle protein pool newly synthesized per hour. Protein synthesis rates were determined by continuous infusion of a stable isotope-labeled amino acid tracer, followed by measurement of tracer incorporation into the muscle proteins over time. Changes in FSR from baseline were evaluated in response to combined exercise and amino acid infu
