Small Extracellular Vesicles Derived From Damaged Muscle Aggravate Kidney Injury Progression

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle atrophy is commonly associated with kidney dysfunction in patients with renal disease. However, the effects of skeletal muscle loss per se on kidney function have not been fully elucidated. Here, we examined muscle–kidney crosstalk by evaluating the role of muscle‐derived small extracellular vesicles (EVs) on the progression ...

Parameters of Body Composition Predict Clinical Course in Acute Colonic Diverticulitis

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Acute colonic diverticulitis (ACD) is the most common complication of colonic diverticulosis. Body composition, that is, proportion, distribution and quality of muscle and adipose tissues may play a relevant role in ACD. Previously, only few reports with small number of patients analysed the prognostic role of body composition in ...

The effects of acetylsalicylic acid on performance, carcass traits, breast meat quality and white striping muscle defects in broiler chickens

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 8, Page 4338-4348, June 2025.
Abstract BACKGROUND This research aims to reduce white striping muscle defects induced by vascular inflammation and hypoxia using the anti‐inflammatory, antiplatelet and anti‐atherothrombotic properties of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). To this end, the effects of different doses (0.3, 0.6, 1, 3 and 6 g L−1) of ASA added to drinking water at 24–48 days on
