The Effect of Leucine on Carnitine Transport to Skeletal Muscle
The Effect of Leucine on Carnitine Transport to Skeletal Muscle
NCT ID: NCT05009654 Phase: NA Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 16 Completion: 2018-01-31
Conditions
Muscle Loss
Interventions
L-carnitine, L-leucine
Summary
The primary aim of the current research project is to explore whether leucine stimulates carnitine transport, and thus affecting muscle carnitine content.
A secondary aim of this project is to investigate the effect of carnitine with leucine supplementation on muscle strength and body composition.
Primary Outcome
Muscle Carnitine Concentration using UPLC-MS/MS
