The effect of dietary protein on p70S6k phosphorylation was examined in rats starved for 18 h and then fed either a 20% casein diet (20C) or a protein-free diet (0C). Refeeding the 20C diet, but not the 0C diet, increased p70S6k phosphorylation in both the skeletal muscle and liver. The plasma insulin concentrations were the same after refeeding the 20C or 0C diet, suggesting that a combination of dietary protein and insulin may be required to stimulate p70S6k phosphorylation.
