ABSTRACT
Lactobacillus-fermented milk can stimulate anabolic effects in skeletal muscle. Fermented milk containing Lactobacillus produces aqueous molecules, such as free AA and lactate. This study aimed to investigate how processing fermented milk by centrifugation and removal of supernatant affects AA absorption and postprandial skeletal muscle protein synthesis (MPS) when mice are fed fermented milk. We gavaged male Sprague-Dawley rats with skim milk (S), fermented milk (F), or processed fermented milk (P), and examined the total AA content in portal vein blood (reflecting AA absorption) and plantaris muscle MPS at 30, 60, and 90 min following administration. Relative to fasted rats, at 30 min the total AA concentration in portal vein blood from rats in the P groups was significantly higher, followed by F and S, respectively. The MPS rates were higher for the F or P groups compared with the S group. Phosphorylation levels of p70S6 kinase in the P and F groups were significantly higher than those for the S group 30 min after administration, although the level of Akt phosphorylation was similar among the groups. These results suggested that fermentation improves AA absorption that in turn enhances postprandial MPS via Akt-independent mechanisms, and that processed fermented milk retains these favorable effects on MPS.
