Editorial: Emerging Mechanisms for Skeletal Muscle Mass Regulation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Skeletal muscle is considered an essential tissue involved in many physiological functions such as metabolism, thermoregulation, respiration, and locomotion. It has become clear that genetic and environmental factors are intricately involved in regulating skeletal muscle volume or myofiber size.

Molecular brakes regulating mTORC1 activation in skeletal muscle following synergist ablation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The goal of the current work was to profile positive (mTORC1 activation, autocrine/paracrine growth factors) and negative [AMPK, unfolded protein response (UPR)] pathways that might regulate overload-induced mTORC1 activation with the hypothesis that a ...

Mouse skeletal muscle fiber-type-specific macroautophagy and muscle wasting are regulated by a Fyn/STAT3/Vps34 signaling pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Skeletal muscle atrophy induced by aging (sarcopenia), inactivity, and prolonged fasting states (starvation) is predominantly restricted to glycolytic type II muscle fibers and typical spares oxidative type I fibers.

TAK1 preserves skeletal muscle mass and mitochondrial function through redox homeostasis

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, 2020
Skeletal muscle atrophy is debilitating consequence of a large number of chronic disease states, aging, and disuse conditions. Skeletal muscle mass is regulated through coordinated activation of a number of signaling cascades.

Obesity is associated with improved postoperative overall survival, independent of skeletal muscle mass in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2022
Background Although the obesity paradox is a topic of immense interest for oncologists and epidemiologists, the mechanism underlying this unexpected benefit of obesity is poorly understood.

Effects of alfacalcidol on circulating cytokines and growth factors in rat skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Supra-physiological levels of vitamin D induce skeletal muscle atrophy, which may be particularly detrimental in already sarcopaenic elderly. Neither the cause nor whether the atrophy is fibre type specific are known.

The transcriptional coactivator PGC-1α is dispensable for chronic overload-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy and metabolic remodeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Skeletal muscle mass loss and dysfunction have been linked to many diseases. Conversely, resistance exercise, mainly by activating mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), promotes skeletal muscle hypertrophy and exerts several therapeutic ...

Differential response of skeletal muscles to mTORC1 signaling during atrophy and hypertrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Skeletal muscle mass is determined by the balance between protein synthesis and degradation. Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a master regulator of protein translation and has been implicated in the control of muscle mass ...

Phenotype selection reveals coevolution of muscle glycogen and protein and PTEN as a gate keeper for the accretion of muscle mass in adult female mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We have investigated molecular mechanisms for muscle mass accretion in a non-inbred mouse model (DU6P mice) characterized by extreme muscle mass. This extreme muscle mass was developed during 138 generations of phenotype selection for high protein ...

Function of mTOR complex 1 and 2 in skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Growth of an organ during development and during adaptation in the adult can be controlled by alterations either in the number or the size of cells. The two mechanisms are fundamentally different and require distinct regulation.
