From the @ThePhySoc 2016 Biomedical Basis of Elite Performance conference 25min to pass some time: muscle protein turnover and hypertrophy. Some reading that is now almost 4 years ahead to support the points made:
1) Protein helps to augment hypertrophy
but its influence is quite small pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28698222 - @RobMorton23 as the main protagonist.

2) High loads are not required for hypertrophy, or for a large part strength gains (especially if one 'practices' lifting heavy loads) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28834797 - @BradSchoenfeld
as the main protagonist on this meta-analysis and some of our work on this - pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20711498 (read first), pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22518835 (read second), and pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27174923 (read third).

3) The acute rise in systemic 'anabolic' hormones plays little, if any, role
in the hypertrophic process - pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20581041 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19736298 (read first), pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19910330 (read second), pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22105707 (read third). And an interesting point-counterpoint: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24136137
