| Primary | Muscle protein metabolism | Alterations in muscle protein metabolism will be assessed by various standard techniques for gene and protein expression. Combined measurements of cell-signaling molecules representing anabolic and catabolic signaling pathways will be evaluated in relation to transcription of muscle myosin proteins. | Single evaluation point at 12-14 hours following the start of overnight infusion. |
