The anabolic action of "fast" whey protein on the regulation of postprandial muscle protein synthesis has been established to be short-lived in healthy young adults. We assessed the time course of anabolic signaling activation and stimulation of myofibrillar protein synthesis rates (MPS) after ingestion of a food source that represents a more typical meal-induced pattern of aminoacidemia. Seven young men (age: 22 ± 1 y) underwent repeated blood and biopsy sampling during primed, continuous l-[ ring - 2 H 5 ]phenylalanine and l-[1- 13 C]leucine tracer infusions and ingested 38 g of l-[1- 13 C]phenylalanine- and l-[1- 13 C]leucine-labeled milk protein concentrate. A total of ∼27 ± 4 (∼10 g) and ∼31 ± 1% (∼12 g) of dietary protein-derived amino acids were released in circulation between 0 and 120 min and 120-300 min, respectively, of the postprandial period. l-[ ring - 2 H 5 ]phenylalanine-based MPS increased above basal (0.025 ± 0.008%/h) by ∼75% (0.043 ± 0.009%/h; P = 0.05) between 0 and 120 min and by ∼86% (0.046 ± 0.004%/h; P = 0.02) between 120 and 300 min, respectively. l-[1- 13 C]leucine-based MPS increased above basal (0.027 ± 0.002%/h) by ∼72% (0.051 ± 0.016%/h; P = 0.10) between 0 and 120 min and by ∼62% (0.047 ± 0.004%/h; P = 0.001) between 120 and 300 min, respectively. Myofibrillar protein-bound l-[1- 13 C]phenylalanine increased over time ( P &lt; 0.001) and equaled 0.004 ± 0.001, 0.008 ± 0.002, 0.017 ± 0.004, and 0.020 ± 0.003 mole percent excess at 60, 120, 180, and 300 min, respectively, of the postprandial period. Milk protein ingestion increased mTORC1 phosphorylation at 120, 180, and 300 min of the postprandial period (all P &lt; 0.05). Our results show that ingestion of 38 g of milk protein results in sustained increases in MPS throughout a 5-h postprandial period in healthy young men. NEW &amp; NOTEWORTHY The stimulation of muscle protein synthesis after whey protein ingestion is short-lived due to its transient systemic appearance of amino acids. Our study characterized the muscle anabolic response to a protein source that results in a more gradual release of amino acids into circulation. Our work demonstrates that a sustained increase in postprandial plasma amino acid availability after milk protein ingestion results in a prolonged stimulation of muscle protein synthesis rates in healthy young men.
