## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinase‐2 (MMP‐2) appears to be the dominant MMP activated during skeletal muscle atrophy. However, little is known about cell‐specific regulatory mechanisms of MMP‐2 transcription in vivo. In this study, we used a mouse model of muscle atrophy induced by complete Achil
Scope: Carnitine improves protein accretion, muscle mass, and protein:fat accretion in piglets. The underlying mechanisms, however, are largely unknown. Methods and results: To gain insight into mechanisms through which carnitine exerts these effects, we fed piglets either a control or a carnitine-s
