Not only that, the body also breaks down existing muscle through a process called catabolism.

People's food intake often slumps when they are sent home, but with inflammation and catabolism resolving, it's when protein and other nutritional interventions, as well as physical activity, are likely to be especially effective.

BCAT1 promotes cell proliferation through amino acid catabolism in gliomas carrying wild-type IDH1.

Catabolism of exogenous lactate reveals it as a legitimate metabolic substrate in breast cancer.
