We looked at 2 mRNA markers associated with MPB (not MPB per se) and saw downregulation of both with CPH feeding to a similar extend in younger and older serum

We showed that a CPH can stimulate signalling & MPS compared to the NEAA control in both older and younger adults. Interestingly, there were no differences in the response between young & older fed serum

In this paper we used ex vivo fed human serum from older adults to establish the anabolic properties of a casein protein hydrolysate compared to an isonitrogenous non-EAA control. With excellent input from reviewers, we compared this response to a young healthy group
