Mechanisms underlying exercise-mediated rescue of cachexia

open access: yes, 2012
Recent studies showed that physical activity after cancer diagnosis ameliorates the prognosis, although the underling mechanisms are stili poorly understood. Cachexia, experienced by most cancer patients, is a negative prognostic factor, interfering with

Locomotion and muscle mass measures in a murine model of collagen-induced arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by chronic poly-arthritis, synovial hyperplasia, erosive synovitis, progressive cartilage and bone destruction accompanied by a loss of body cell mass.

Treatment of cachexia in oncology

open access: yesIndian Journal of Palliative Care, 2010
Cachexia is a complex metabolic syndrome associated with many chronic or end-stage diseases, especially cancer, and is characterized by loss of muscle with or without loss of fat mass. The management of cachexia is a complex challenge that should address the different causes underlying this clinical event with an integrated or multimodal treatment ...

Discrepancies Between Micro Versus Macroscale Viscoelastic Properties in a Microplastic‐Tissue Composite Model

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the discrepancies between bulk mechanics and spatial mapping in a tissue‐mimetic hydrogel model. Microplastic particles create localized stiff mechanical microenvironments that are detectable by cellular‐scale nanoindentation but leave bulk properties unchanged as measured by rheology.

Entropy‐Driven Design of Low‐Melting‐Point Alloys via Compositionally Complex Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional low‐melting‐point alloys (LMPAs) are limited by a narrow compositional space and inherent property trade‐offs. This review presents an entropy‐driven design strategy that overcomes these limitations, ushering in a new class of low‐melting‐point compositionally complex alloys (LMCCAs).

Fabrication Routes for Ionic Conducting Fiber Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic conducting fiber strain sensors (ICFSs) offer compliant, textile‐integrable sensing. Thus far, the commercialization of ICFSs has been constrained by fiber fabrication routes. This review provides a fabrication‐centric analysis of ICFSs correlating processing strategies with material properties and scalability.

Influence of TiC and TiN Ceramic Reinforcements on the Microstructure, Thermal Expansion Behavior, and Tensile Properties of Invar 36 Manufactured by Laser Powder Bed Fusion

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines Invar composites reinforced with titanium carbide (TiC) and titanium nitride (TiN) using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). It presents the influence of reinforcements on microstructure, tensile properties, and thermal expansion. Results show that TiC effectively strengthens Invar while maintaining low thermal expansion, whereas TiN ...

Metabolic Profiling of Tumors, Sera, and Skeletal Muscles from an Orthotopic Murine Model of Gastric Cancer Associated-Cachexia

open access: yes, 2019
Cachexia is a complex metabolic derangement syndrome that affects approximately 50–80% of cancer patients. So far, few works have been reported to provide a global overview of gastric cancer cachexia (GCC)-related metabolic changes.

To assess the effectiveness of tailored food recipe in attenuating the progression of cancer cachexia to refractory cachexia in adult female patients undergoing palliative care in India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cancer cachexia negatively impacts patients’ capability to undergo chemotherapy and fight infection. Increased energy expenditure and anorexia are key clinical features among cachexia patients leading to body weight loss.
