Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Association of Skeletal Muscle, Body Fat and Frailty With Prolonged Length of Hospital Stay Following Colectomy for Adenocarcinoma: A Pilot Case‐Control Study

open access: yesHealth Care Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Physical fitness is well‐known to be associated with health outcomes. This pilot study examined the impact of different measures of fitness on length of stay following colectomy. A case‐control study was designed to evaluate the effect of skeletal muscle mass, body fat, and frailty measures on post‐operative length of stay (LOS).

Sarcopenia as a severe organ failure, its diagnosing and present therapeutic possibilities [PDF]

open access: yesVnitřní lékařství, 2018
Sarcopenia is defined as generalized and progressive age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass, muscle strength and physical performance below a defined threshold. In sarcopenia skeletal muscle mass - the largest body organ - is failing in its function and the term "muscle failure" was suggested.

Nonlinear association of triglyceride‐glucose body mass index with all‐cause mortality in postmenopausal women, a retrospective cohort study: Evidence from the 2001 to 2014 National Health and nutrition examination survey

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The triglyceride‐glucose body mass index (TyG‐BMI) is a novel indicator combining an insulin resistance proxy (TyG index) with adiposity. It remains unclear how TyG‐BMI relates to long‐term mortality risk in postmenopausal women, a group prone to metabolic changes after menopause.

Normal Ribosomal Biogenesis but Shortened Protein Synthetic Response to Acute Eccentric Resistance Exercise in Old Skeletal Muscle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Anabolic resistance to feeding in aged muscle is well-characterized; however, whether old skeletal muscle is intrinsically resistant to acute mechanical loading is less clear.

Chondroitin sulfate restores muscle mass via gut–muscle axis remodeling through sugar–bile acid metabolism reprogramming

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the molecular mechanism by which chondroitin sulfate (DCS) alleviates glucocorticoid‐induced myopathy through the gut–muscle axis. DCS selectively enriches L. johnsonii Z‐RW, enhancing bshA‐encoded BSH activity to promote bile acid deconjugation and reduce the sugar–bile acid ratio, thereby re‐establishing intestinal ...
