A succinct review of hundreds of studies on the regulation of
protein mass and protein turnover in the human body. The book
summarizes the biochemistry of protein synthesis and breakdown, and
explains the methods that are used to examine protein metabolism in
humans, together with their limitations. Chapters review the
effects of nutrition, hormones, metabolic substrates, and physical
activity, while various topics of clinical interest include cancer,
diabetes, tissue injury, pregnancy, renal disease, muscular
dystrophies, and other conditions. Normal values are presented for
turnover of proteins in the whole body and individual organs, and
for turnover of many individual proteins. This is thus a valuable
resource for physiologists, nutritionists, and clinicians
interested in the regulation of body protein stores in health and
disease. For scientists primarily interested in the basic aspects
of protein metabolism, it shows how the basic knowledge is being
applied to the study of humans.
