  • Title: Action of insulin and growth hormone on protein synthesis in muscle from non-hypophysectomized rabbits.
    Author: Reeds PJ, Munday KA, Turner MR.
    Journal: Biochem J; 1971 Nov; 125(2):515-20. PubMed ID: 5144756.
    Abstract:
    The separate effects of insulin and growth hormone on the uptake and incorporation of five amino acids into diaphragm muscle from non-hypophysectomized rabbits has been examined. Both growth hormone and insulin, when present in the medium separately, stimulated the incorporation into protein of the amino acids, leucine, arginine, valine, lysine and histidine. Insulin also stimulated amino acid uptake, but growth hormone did not. When insulin and growth hormone were present in the incubation medium together, the uptake and incorporation of valine, the only amino acid studied under these conditions, tended to be greater than the sum of the separate effects of the two hormones.
