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

Erythropoietin Alleviates Burn-induced Muscle Wasting [PDF]
International Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020 Background: Burn injury induces long-term skeletal muscle pathology. We hypothesized EPO could attenuate burn-induced muscle fiber atrophy. Methods: Rats were allocated into four groups: a sham burn group, an untreated burn group subjected to third degree hind paw burn, and two burn groups treated with weekly or daily EPO for four weeks.

Communications 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 ...

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)

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

Role of Protein Carbonylation in Skeletal Muscle Mass Loss Associated with Chronic Conditions
Proteomes, 2016 Muscle dysfunction, characterized by a reductive remodeling of muscle fibers, is a common systemic manifestation in highly prevalent conditions such as chronic heart failure (CHF), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cancer cachexia, and ...

Stress responsive miR-23a attenuates skeletal muscle atrophy by targeting MAFbx /atrogin-1 [PDF]
, 2008 Muscle atrophy occurs in many pathological states and results primarily from accelerated protein degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. We used dexamethasone to induce muscle wasting and investigated the role of a microRNA (miRNA) in the ...

Effect of whey protein isolate on strength, body composition and muscle hypertrophy during resistance training [PDF]
, 2008 Purpose of Review: Sarcopenia (skeletal muscle wasting with aging) is thought to underlie a number of serious age-related health issues. While it may be seen as inevitable, decreasing this gradual loss of muscle is vital for healthy aging.

Independent link between peripheral artery disease and muscle wasting in patients with heart failure
ESC Heart Failure, 2020 Aims A high prevalence of muscle wasting, that is, reduction in muscle mass, in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) and heart failure (HF) has been reported.

The effects of strength training on muscle wasting, fat mass and quality of life in men with Prostate Cancer undergoing Androgen Deprivation Therapy: a meta-analysis. [PDF]
, 2018 • In 2013, the probability of a man developing prostate cancer (PCa) was 1 in 6, sitting on top of the charts as the single most common area for men to develop cancer [4].
