Exercise and skeletal muscle regeneration
Skeletal muscle injury is generally caused by stimuli, such as intense resistance training, eccentric muscle contraction, muscle strain and bruising. Injured skeletal muscles are repaired within several weeks after injury, because skeletal muscle has a ...

Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this

Seven days of warm‐water immersion enhances resting irisin and BDNF, but not klotho, in older men
Abstract We examined whether seven consecutive days of warm‐water immersion could elevate resting and exercise‐induced levels of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), irisin and klotho in older adults. These biomarkers support cognitive and metabolic health, but their levels decline with age.

Abstract Improving adipose tissue (AT) metabolism through exercise might increase production of lipokines from the fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFA) family. Although exercise training can increase insulin sensitivity and levels of specific FAHFA in AT and the circulation in humans, the effects of acute exercise on FAHFA levels remain ...

Putting the brakes on muscle growth: Myostatin as regulator of disuse atrophy
Abstract Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue that rapidly adapts to changes in mechanical loading and metabolic activity. Periods of inactivity, including bed rest, limb immobilization or microgravity, induce a pronounced loss of muscle mass and function.

Abstract The association between higher levels of physical activity and lower cancer risk and mortality is well established. However, a causal link is yet to be proven. Recent studies showed a decrease in the proliferation rates of cultured human cancer cells when the human serum used to stimulate them was conditioned by acute exercise. Here, we tested

Intramuscular pathways of maladaptation in overtraining syndrome
Abstract figure legend The transition from adaptive overreaching to maladaptive overtraining and mechanisms through which excessive training load can lead to performance decline. Four interconnected pathophysiological domains are highlighted: neural fatigue, involving both central and peripheral components such as altered sensory feedback and reflex ...

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a cytokine with multiple biological effects. It plays a complex and seemingly paradoxical central role in both the physiological homeostasis and pathological processes of skeletal muscle.
