Association of Genetically Predicted BCAA Levels with Muscle Fiber Size in Athletes Consuming Protein

Association of Genetically Predicted BCAA Levels with Muscle Fiber Size in Athletes Consuming Protein

Branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) levels are associated with skeletal muscle cross-sectional area (CSA). Serum BCAA levels are enhanced by whey protein supplementation (WPS), and evidence in clinical populations suggests an association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with BCAA metabolite le...
