摘要
This work. aims at the determination of serum free amino acid and myofibrillar protein profiles in N the fed and underfed state of the rat. Sixteen male rats were divided in 2 groups: CR (control) fed ad libitum and RR (restricted. feeding) fed 34% energetic maintenance needs. Animals were slaughtered at day 23, bled and serum free amino acid profile determined. Gastrocnemius muscle was taken for myofibrillar, protein characterisation. Although higher concentrations of Ile, Thr, Met; Ser and Cys were observed in RR group, no preferable catabolism of individual amino acids was observed in. undernourished rats in this study. Myofibrillar protein profiles were similar in both groups revealing the lack of preferable catabolism of myofibrillar proteins and consequently keeping muscle structure.
