The direct downstream targets of mTORC1 are ribosomal S6 kinase (p70S6K) and eukaryotic initiation factor 4Ebinding proteins (4EBP) which regulate protein translation, cell size and cell cycle progression 7,8
In addition to its metabolic role, ALCAR offers antioxidant support, helping to protect muscle cells from oxidative stress and reducing soreness and stiffness
translating that pulse into lean mass gain or fat loss requires sustained IGF-1 elevation and tissue-level responsiveness that has not been robustly demonstrated in healthy adults for either compound
