Dietary nitrate supplementation mitigates age‐related changes at the neuromuscular junction in mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Ageing is associated with a decline in muscle mass and strength, namely sarcopenia, significantly impacting the quality of life in older individuals. Different strategies are being explored to counteract these detrimental effects. In the present study, we investigated a non‐invasive nutritional approach: the impact of 2 months of

The link between sarcopenic obesity and Alzheimer's disease: a brain‐derived neurotrophic factor point of view

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A, Sarcopenic obesity is defined as the age‐related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function that often leads to the progression of comorbidities, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Though the exact link between the two diseases is unknown, alterations in brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) may be a contributor.

Astrocytes: Orchestrators of brain gas exchange and oxygen homeostasis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Oxygen and carbon dioxide enter the body via breathing; in the brain astrocytes play a key role balancing oxygen delivery with carbon dioxide removal. Abstract If we consider neurons like muscles during exercise, the demand for oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) elimination is constantly changing.

Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Reduced cardiovascular mortality at moderate altitude: a putative role of physical activity and body mass

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Benefits of performing physical exercise at moderate altitude. At moderate altitude, increased resting metabolic rate and physical exertion promote physical fitness and exercise tolerance, whereas hypoxia suppresses appetite and elicits adaptations that increase tissue O2 delivery while augmenting O2‐independent ATP production ...

Vinpocetine Overcomes Paclitaxel Resistance in a Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Cell Line

open access: yesCell Biology International, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 1716-1729, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Paclitaxel is a first‐line treatment for triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC), but its efficacy is commonly limited by tumor‐cell resistance. Vinpocetine is a well‐tolerated dietary supplement with pleiotropic cellular effects, including potential anti‐tumor activity.

Effect of Naringenin on Potassium Bromate–Induced Hepatotoxicity In Vivo: A Dose‐Dependent Study

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 2601-2612, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Potassium bromate (PB) is a well‐known additive in the food industry and a byproduct of water treatment. Its long‐term exposure to any form of life exerts mild to severe toxic insults in a dose‐dependent fashion and can even trigger carcinogenesis.

Pathways Contributing to Chemotherapy‐Induced Myotoxicity Are Attenuated by EPA + DHA in a Clinically Relevant Model of Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Skeletal muscle loss is a well‐recognized consequence of cancer, and chemotherapy exacerbates myotoxicity through multiple mechanisms. Retaining muscle mass improves tumour response to therapies and tolerance to chemotherapy; hence, interventions to mitigate myotoxicity warrant investigations.
