Icariin ameliorates sarcopenia via activation of the estrogen receptor α/fatty acid transport protein 1 pathway.

BACKGROUND

Sarcopenia is a prevalent disorder among postmenopausal women, representing a debilitating condition with limited treatment options. Icariin (ICA), a prenylated flavonol glycoside, is commonly used in conditions associated with estrogen deficiency; however, its efficacy and mechanism in postmenopausal sarcopenia remain...

Butyrate (short-chain fatty acid) alleviates lipopolysaccharide-binding proteins and improves physical function in knee osteoarthritis patients.

Knee-osteoarthritis (OA) is often associated with increased intestinal permeability, potentially causing sarcopenia, and mobility issues. Current treatments are ineffective. The objective of this study was to investigate if butyrate improves sarcopenia and physical function in knee-OA patients, and if improvements...
