We examined the effects of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and insulin on the plasma amino acid (AA) profile and leucine kinetics in eight normal subjects. IGF-I was infused at 52 pmol. kg -1. min -1, in combination with prime-continuous [1-14C] leucine infusion, to obtain ste
## Abstract Melatonin (MEL) is the main neurohormone of the pineal gland. Zinc (Zn) is an essential trace element that is required as a catalytic component for more than 200 enzymes. Both MEL and Zn are considered beneficial for antiβimmunosenescence. Recent findings have shown that MEL can modulat
