PROTEOLYSIS AND AUTOPHAGY IN THE VASTUS LATERALIS OF PATIENTS WITH BRONCHIECTASIS-ASSOCIATED SARCOPENIA: ROLE IN TRAINING PROGRAMS

open access: yesOpen Respiratory Archives
Introduction: Muscle dysfunction or sarcopenia is a systemic manifestation of chronic respiratory diseases such as COPD and non-cystic fibrosis (non-CF) bronchiectasis.

Regular exercise and branched‐chain amino acids prevent ischemic acute kidney injury‐related muscle wasting in mice

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2020
Acute kidney injury (AKI) causes glucose and protein metabolism abnormalities that result in muscle wasting, thereby affecting the long‐term prognosis of critical illness survivors. Here, we examined whether early intervention with treadmill exercise and

Association of muscle wasting with mortality risk among adults: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of prospective studies

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2023
The relationship between muscle wasting and mortality risk in the general population remains unclear. Our study was conducted to examine and quantify the associations between muscle wasting and all‐cause and cause‐specific mortality risks. PubMed, Web of

SYSTEMIC INFLAMMATION AND OXIDATIVE STRESS IN BRONCHIECTASIS PATIENTS WITH SARCOPENIA: IMPLICATIONS FOR MUSCLE FUNCTION AND PULMONARY REHABILITATION STRATEGIES

open access: yesOpen Respiratory Archives
Introduction: Sarcopenia is common in chronic respiratory diseases. Several biological processes are involved in its onset. In the muscles of patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, the underlying mechanisms have not yet been described.

Vitamin D, a modulator of musculoskeletal health in chronic kidney disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The spectrum of activity of vitamin D goes beyond calcium and bone homeostasis, and growing evidence suggests that vitamin D contributes to maintain musculoskeletal health in healthy subjects as well as in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD ...

STAT3 in the systemic inflammation of cancer cachexia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Weight loss is diagnostic of cachexia, a debilitating syndrome contributing mightily to morbidity and mortality in cancer. Most research has probed mechanisms leading to muscle atrophy and adipose wasting in cachexia; however cachexia is a truly systemic

HCT116 colorectal liver metastases exacerbate muscle wasting in a mouse model for the study of colorectal cancer cachexia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is often accompanied by formation of liver metastases (LM) and skeletal muscle wasting, i.e. cachexia. Despite affecting the majority of CRC patients, cachexia remains underserved, understudied and uncured.

Blocking muscle wasting via deletion of the muscle-specific E3 ligase MuRF1 impedes pancreatic tumor growth

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Cancer-induced muscle wasting reduces quality of life, complicates or precludes cancer treatments, and predicts early mortality. Herein, we investigate the requirement of the muscle-specific E3 ubiquitin ligase, MuRF1, for muscle wasting induced by ...

Growing Older, Staying Strong: Preventing Sarcopenia Through Strength Training [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Older people can reduce their frailty, become more mobile and stave off the muscle-wasting condition known as sarcopenia by working out as little as twice a ...

Spontaneous physical activity down-regulates Pax7 in cancer cachexia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Emerging evidence suggests that the muscle microenvironment plays a prominent role in cancer cachexia. We recently showed that NF-kB - induced Pax7 overexpression impairs the myogenic potential of muscle precursors in cachectic mice, suggesting that ...
