Low muscle mass, low muscle function, and sarcopenia in the urban and rural elderly

Scientific Reports, 2022
Health outcomes of the elderly vary between rural and urban areas. Sarcopenia is diagnosed as loss of muscle strength or impaired physical performance, namely “low muscle function” and low muscle mass.

A primer on global molecular responses to exercise in skeletal muscle: Omics in focus

Journal of Sport and Health Science
Advances in skeletal muscle omics has expanded our understanding of exercise-induced adaptations at the molecular level. Over the past 2 decades, transcriptome studies in muscle have detailed acute and chronic responses to resistance, endurance, and ...

Displaced myonuclei are attributable to both resident myonuclear migration and stem cell fusion during mechanical loading in adult skeletal muscle

Skeletal Muscle
Non-peripheral (displaced) myonuclei are characteristic of skeletal muscle pathology and severe injury but also appear after exercise and with aging. Displaced myonuclei are typically attributed to the activity of muscle stem cells, or satellite cells ...

Association between insulin resistance, lean mass and muscle torque/force in proximal versus distal body parts in healthy young men [PDF]

, 2014
Objectives:The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is already an association of insulin resistance (IR) with muscle mass and –force/torque in an adult population and whether this relationship is the same in distal and proximal body ...

The scaling of postcranial muscles in cats (Felidae) I: forelimb, cervical, and thoracic muscles [PDF]

, 2016
The body masses of cats (Mammalia, Carnivora, Felidae) span a ~300‐fold range from the smallest to largest species. Despite this range, felid musculoskeletal anatomy remains remarkably conservative, including the maintenance of a crouched limb posture at

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Body composition associations with muscle strength in older adults living in Auckland, New Zealand.

PLoS ONE, 2021
BackgroundAging is associated with decreases in muscle strength and simultaneous changes in body composition, including decreases in muscle mass, muscle quality and increases in adiposity.MethodsAdults (n = 369; 236 females) aged 65-74 years living ...

Pharmacological strategies in lung cancer-induced cachexia: effects on muscle proteolysis, autophagy, structure, and weakness [PDF]

, 2014
Muscle wasting and cachexia are important systemic manifestations of highly prevalent conditions including cancer. Inflammation, oxidative stress, autophagy, ubiquitin-proteasome system, nuclear factor (NF)-kB, and mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPK)

The role of fibroblast growth factors in cell and cancer metabolism

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling regulates crucial signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. Therefore, FGFs and their receptors are often dysregulated in human diseases, including cancer, to sustain proliferation and rewire metabolism.
