Mitochondrial transplantation as a possible therapeutic option for sarcopenia

Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2023
With advancing age, the skeletal muscle phenotype is characterized by a progressive loss of mass, strength, and quality. This phenomenon, known as sarcopenia, has a negative impact on quality of life and increases the risk of morbidity and mortality in older adults.

Current understanding of sarcopenia: possible candidates modulating muscle mass

Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2014
The world's elderly population is expanding rapidly, and we are now faced with the significant challenge of maintaining or improving physical activity, independence, and quality of life in the elderly. Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass, is characterized by a deterioration of muscle quantity and quality leading to a gradual ...

Possible Role of Nutrition in Prevention of Sarcopenia and Falls

Endocrine Practice, 2019
Objective: In this review, we analyze the foundation of sarcopenia as a potentially modifiable risk factor for falls, and we try to formulate practical strategies for nutritional interventions aimed at reducing the risk for sarcopenia and falls in our elderly patients.

Possible predictors for sarcopenia in community-dwelling elderly: neck and calf circumferences

Gériatrie et Psychologie Neuropsychiatrie du Vieillissement, 2023
The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between sarcopenia and calf and neck circumferences. One hundred seventy-seven community-dwelling elderly individuals (over 65 years old) were recruited. A questionnaire was applied via face-to-face interview and the MNA-SF was used to assess nutritional status.

Interventions Based on the Possibility That Oxidative Stress Contributes to Sarcopenia

The Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, 1995
Skeletal muscle is a tissue which accounts for a large part of the body's total oxygen consumption at rest, due to its large mass and the majority of oxygen consumption during vigorous physical activity. Also, skeletal muscle and nervous tissues do not possess the very high repair capacities that occur in more mitotically active tissues.

Is Iron Accumulation a Possible Risk Factor for Sarcopenia?

Biological Trace Element Research, 2018
Sarcopenia has a high incidence among the elderly, with significant negative effects on the quality of life. The pathogenesis of sarcopenia is complex, and many factors are involved in its development and progression. Sarcopenia might be associated with iron accumulation given that (1) age-related iron accumulation was found in the skeletal muscle, (2)
