Figure 2From: Sexually dimorphic effect of aging on skeletal muscle protein synthesis Skeletal muscle protein fractional synthesis rate (FSR) during basal, post-absorptive conditions and during the hyperinsulinemic-hyperaminoacidemic-euglycemic clamp procedure in young and old men (top) and young and old women (bottom). Data are means ± SEM. For both men and women, ANOVA revealed a significant age x clamp interaction (P < 0.05). Within each group (i.e., men or women), bars not sharing the same letter are significantly different from each other (P < 0.05).Back to article page
