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 ...

Skeletal muscle regeneration is impaired in patients with cancer-associated cachexia

, 2020
Cancer-associated cachexia is defined by loss of skeletal muscle mass with or without body fat loss. The skeletal muscle regenerative processes appear to be dysregulated in cancer cachexia, with increased muscle progenitor cell proliferation, resulting ...

Cancer cachexia affects patients with head and neck cancer in all stages of disease: a prospective cross-sectional study [PDF]

, 2020
The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of cancer cachexia according to the clinical stage and determine differences in body composition, usual energy intake, and proinflammatory profile between cachectic and non-cachectic patients newly ...

Respiratory and Peripheral Muscle Weakness and Body Composition Abnormalities in Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis Patients: Gender Differences

Biomedicines, 2022
As demonstrated in COPD, bronchiectasis patients may experience respiratory and peripheral muscle dysfunction. We hypothesized that respiratory and peripheral (upper and lower limbs) muscle function and nutritional status may be more significantly ...

Signaling networks governing skeletal muscle growth, atrophy, and cachexia

Skeletal Muscle
Maintaining skeletal muscle mass and strength is essential for healthy aging and overall longevity. Muscle mass is governed by a complex network of signaling pathways that coordinate proteostasis and regulate the expression of anabolic and catabolic ...

The rationale for preventing cancer cachexia: targeting excessive fatty acid oxidation

Chinese Journal of Cancer, 2016
Cachexia commonly occurs at the terminal stage of cancer and has largely unclear molecular mechanisms. A recent study published in Nature Medicine, entitled “Excessive fatty acid oxidation induces muscle atrophy in cancer cachexia,” reveals that ...

Biomimetic Core–Shell Liposome Nanoparticles Deplete Lipoproteins and Enhance the Purity of Extracellular Vesicles from Human Blood

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lipoprotein‐mimicking nanoparticles (SL‐NPs), comprising Fe3O4@SiO2 cores coated with liposomal bilayers, selectively capture lipoproteins through protein corona formation. The resulting SL‐NP‐lipoprotein complexes can be removed by low‐speed centrifugation, thereby enhancing the purity of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) isolated from human serum ...
