mTOR as a Key Regulator in Maintaining Skeletal Muscle Mass [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Maintenance of skeletal muscle mass is regulated by the balance between anabolic and catabolic processes. Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is an evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine kinase, and is known to play vital roles in protein synthesis ...

Impact of Skeletal Muscle Mass on Metabolic Health [PDF]
Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020 Skeletal muscle is regarded as an endocrine and paracrine organ. Muscle-derived secretory proteins, referred to as myokines, mediate interactions between skeletal muscle mass and other organs such as the liver, adipose tissue, pancreas, bone, and the ...

Role of Myokines in Regulating Skeletal Muscle Mass and Function [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 Loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength has recently become a hot research topic with the extension of life span and an increasingly sedentary lifestyle in modern society. Maintenance of skeletal muscle mass is considered an essential determinant of muscle strength and function.
