Cancer cachexia.

Molecular cancer, 2003
In recent years many efforts of researchers and clinicians were made to improve our knowledge of cachexia syndrome. Not only cancer, but also many chronic or end-stage diseases such as AIDS, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), rheumatoid arthritis, tuberculosis and Crohn's disease are associated with cachexia, a condition of abnormally low ...

Interleukin-6 induces fat loss in cancer cachexia by promoting white adipose tissue lipolysis and browning

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2018
Background Cancer cachexia is a progressive and multi-factorial metabolic syndrome characterized by loss of adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. White adipose tissue (WAT) lipolysis and white-to-brown transdifferentiation of WAT (WAT browning) are ...

SYSTEMIC INFLAMMATION AND OXIDATIVE STRESS IN BRONCHIECTASIS PATIENTS WITH SARCOPENIA: IMPLICATIONS FOR MUSCLE FUNCTION AND PULMONARY REHABILITATION STRATEGIES

Open Respiratory Archives
Introduction: Sarcopenia is common in chronic respiratory diseases. Several biological processes are involved in its onset. In the muscles of patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, the underlying mechanisms have not yet been described.

Recycling of NiTi Shape Memory Alloys: Fundamental and Technological Aspects of a Vacuum Induction Melting Processing Route

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The present study investigates recycling of NiTi shape memory alloys via vacuum induction melting. An ingot was synthesized from elemental Ni and Ti and subjected to three subsequent remelting cycles. Remelting increases process durations and impurity levels and adversely affects microstructures and functional properties.

Current Status and Challenges in Data Collection for Aerospace Coatings Deposited by Plasma Spraying

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An innovative approach has been integrated into the GRENAT project to optimize plasma spraying and coating performance. Raw materials are accelerated and melted in the plasma generated by torches, creating coatings. Monitoring sensors collect process data which are combined with ex situ characterization data.

Oncology Update: Anamorelin

Palliative Care, 2017
Background: Cancer cachexia is a catabolic syndrome associated with uncontrolled muscle breakdown. There may be associated fat loss. Occurring in high frequency in advanced cancer, it is an indicator of poor prognosis.

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...

Effect of Cancer Cachexia on the Efficacy and Treatment Delivery of Chemotherapy in Older Patients With Advanced Small Cell Lung Cancer

Thoracic Cancer
Background Cachexia is a syndrome in patients with cancer that reduces life quality and prognosis, characterized by severe weight loss, muscle atrophy, and anorexia. How cachexia adversely affects older patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) remains
