Sarcopenia in Children Post Liver Transplant: Development of a Home-Based Video Program to Support Muscle Strength and Function-A Pre-Post Controlled Pilot Study.

Sarcopenia is common in children after liver transplantation (LTx). Resistance training (RT) may be effective in combating sarcopenia. The purpose of the study was to test the feasibility and impact of a 12-week RT program on skeletal muscle mass (SMM),...

The impact of mobility limitations on geriatric rehabilitation outcomes: Positive effects of resistance exercise training (RESORT).

Regaining walking ability is a key target in geriatric rehabilitation. This study evaluated the prevalence of walking ability at (pre-)admission and related clinical characteristics in a cohort of geriatric rehabilitation inpatients; in inpatients without walking ability, feasibility and effectiveness of...

Adenosine A2B receptor activation regulates the balance between T helper 17 cells and regulatory T cells, and inhibits regulatory T cells exhaustion in experimental autoimmune myositis.

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by skeletal muscle involvement. This study aimed to investigate the role of adenosine receptor signalling pathways in the development of experimental autoimmune myositis (EAM). An ecto-5'-nucleotidase (CD73) inhibitor, adenosine receptor...

Sphingolipid metabolites as potential circulating biomarkers for sarcopenia in men.

Sarcopenia is an age-related progressive loss of muscle mass and function. Sarcopenia is a multifactorial disorder, including metabolic disturbance; therefore, metabolites may be used as circulating biomarkers for sarcopenia. We aimed to investigate potential biomarkers of sarcopenia using metabolomics. After...

Sarcopenia interventions in long-term care facilities targeting sedentary behaviour and physical inactivity: A systematic review.

Sedentary behaviour and physical inactivity are independent risk factors for sarcopenia for long-term care facility residents. Understanding the components, mechanisms and context of interventions that target change in these risk factors can help optimize sarcopenia management approaches. This study aimed...

High-Intensity Interval Training Mitigates Sarcopenia and Suppresses the Myoblast Senescence Regulator EEF1E1.

The optimal exercise regimen for alleviating sarcopenia remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) over moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) in ameliorating sarcopenia. We conducted a randomized crossover trial to evaluate plasma proteomic reactions...

Frequency of weight and body composition increases in advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients during first line therapy.

The primary objective of this study was to assess the frequency of body composition increases and their relationships to changes in body weight in two cohorts of real world, treatment-naรฏve, advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. One cohort received...

Novel insights into the association between genetically proxied inhibition of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 and risk of sarcopenia.

The effects of lipid-lowering drugs [including statins, ezetimibe, and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors] on hyperlipidaemia have been established. Some may have treatment effects beyond their reported properties, offering potential opportunities for drug repurposing. Epidemiological studies have reported...

Improved health by combining dietary restriction and promoting muscle growth in DNA repair-deficient progeroid mice.

Ageing is a complex multifactorial process, impacting all organs and tissues, with DNA damage accumulation serving as a common underlying cause. To decelerate ageing, various strategies have been applied to model organisms and evaluated for health and lifespan benefits. Dietary...

Ubiquitylomics: An Emerging Approach for Profiling Protein Ubiquitylation in Skeletal Muscle.

Skeletal muscle is a highly adaptable tissue, finely tuned by various physiological and pathological factors. Whilst the pivotal role of skeletal muscle in overall health is widely acknowledged, unravelling the underlying molecular mechanisms poses ongoing challenges. Protein ubiquitylation, a crucial...

Sex difference, proteostasis and mitochondrial function impact stroke-related sarcopenia-A systematic review and meta-analysis.

The prevalence of stroke-related sarcopenia has been noted; however, epidemiological data and interventions that increase or reduce the incidence of stroke-related sarcopenia remain lacking. Studies on stroke-related sarcopenia were included in association or interventional analyses. All analyses were performed using...

IL36G-producing neutrophil-like monocytes promote cachexia in cancer.

Most patients with advanced cancer develop cachexia, a multifactorial syndrome characterized by progressive skeletal muscle wasting. Despite its catastrophic impact on survival, the critical mediators responsible for cancer cachexia development remain poorly defined. Here, we show that a distinct subset...

Liver-secreted FGF21 induces sarcopenia by inhibiting satellite cell myogenesis via klotho beta in decompensated cirrhosis.

Sarcopenia, a prevalent condition, significantly impacts the prognosis of patients with decompensated cirrhosis (DC). Serum fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) levels are significantly higher in DC patients with sarcopenia. Satellite cells (SCs) play a role in aging- and cancer-induced sarcopenia....
