Effects of Dietary Chlorogenic Acid Supplementation Derived from Lonicera macranthoides Hand-Mazz on Growth Performance, Free Amino Acid Profile, and Muscle Protein Synthesis in a Finishing Pig Model

Figure 2

Effects of different levels of dietary CGA supplementation on muscle protein synthesis in the skeletal muscles of finishing pigs. (a) Relative abundance of momentous proteins related to protein synthesis in LD muscles. (b) Relative abundance of momentous proteins related to protein synthesis in BF muscles. (c) Relative mRNA expression levels of skeletal muscle protein degradation-related genes. Values are presented as the mean values, with their standard errors represented by vertical bars. p/t denotes the corresponding phosphorylated protein normalized to the total protein level. ^a,b,cValues in the same row with different superscript letters are significantly different at .

(a) Longissimus dorsi muscle

(b) Biceps femoris muscle
