Intramuscular Fat as a Biomarker of Muscle Health: Strengths, Limitations and Open Challenges

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Intramuscular fat (IMF), also known as myosteatosis, refers to the accumulation of lipids within and around skeletal muscle fibres. Excess IMF is increasingly recognised as a sign of poor muscle quality, linked to reductions in strength, power and mobility, and associated with adverse outcomes in metabolic disease, osteoarthritis ...

Sono‐Anatomy and Histology of the Deep Fasciae in the Upper Limb

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 10, Page 2119-2140, October 2026.
The deep fascia of the upper limb represents a pivotal anatomical structure essential for effective force transmission, dynamic compartmentalization and musculoskeletal stability. Its composition (rich in type I collagen fibers) enables both mechanical resilience and functional adaptability, crucial for the upper limb's complex movements.

SIRT6 Activation Improves Intervertebral Disc Health in the Aging Spine

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
Our studies for the first time underscore the feasibility of long‐term SIRT6 activation as a pharmacological strategy to maintain the health of the intervertebral disc in the aging spine. ABSTRACT Aging is a critical risk factor for intervertebral disc degeneration, a major contributor to chronic low back pain.
