Diabetes‐Associated Cognitive Impairment: Pathophysiology and Emerging Therapies
ABSTRACT Diabetes‐associated cognitive impairment (DACI) is a common yet underrecognized condition, manifesting along a spectrum from mild cognitive impairment to dementia. DACI encompasses patients who develop vascular dementia (VaD) or Alzheimer's disease (AD) with diabetes as a risk factor; however, in certain patients, particularly those lacking ...

ABSTRACT Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a clinically heterogeneous neurodegenerative disease requiring reliable biomarkers to improve patient stratification and trial design. While serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) reflects neuroaxonal stress and disease aggressiveness, troponin T (TnT) may capture complementary aspects of ...

Synergistic and antagonistic effects of TNF-[alpha] and IGF-I in heart failure : "in vitro" and "in vivo" study of cardiac and skeletal muscle [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in industrialized countries. All forms of myocardial injury first lead to compensatory hypertrophy, which eventually progresses to heart failure.

Effect of NF‐κB on Myosin Heavy Chain Content and Muscle Atrophy After Laryngeal Muscle Denervation
Objective To investigate the role of NF‐κB in regulating myosin heavy chain (MyHC) content and muscle atrophy following laryngeal muscle denervation. Methods Rats were divided into five groups: (1) recurrent laryngeal nerve injury (RLNI), (2) RLNI with ...

Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Atrophy in Cachexia by MicroRNAs and Long Non-coding RNAs
Skeletal muscle atrophy is a common complication of cachexia, characterized by progressive bodyweight loss and decreased muscle strength, and it significantly increases the risks of morbidity and mortality in the population with atrophy.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists in Multiple Sclerosis: A Topical Narrative Review
ABSTRACT The glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists (RAs) are a relatively new class of drugs that were initially approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and, subsequently, weight reduction in patients with obesity.

Cellular and molecular mechanisms of skeletal muscle atrophy after spinal cord injury
Spinal cord injury leads to a rapid and profound loss of skeletal muscle mass. Muscle atrophy consequently promotes metabolic disturbances and leads to increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Prevention of such consequences requires
