The mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant SkQ1 prevents skeletal muscle mitochondrial-apoptotic but not necroptotic signalling during ovarian cancer.

The degree to which mitochondrial-linked programmed cell death pathways contribute to skeletal muscle atrophy during cancer remains unknown. Here we combined a novel and robust mouse model of metastatic ovarian cancer with chronic administration of the mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant SkQ1 to...

Interplay Between mTORC1 Signaling and Iron Homeostasis in Muscle Atrophy.

The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) plays an important role in maintaining skeletal muscle homeostasis by regulating cell growth, protein degradation, and nutrient sensing. Beyond its role in muscle growth and atrophy, recent findings suggest that mTORC1 also...

Microenvironment-driven satellite cell regeneration and repair in aging-related sarcopenia: mechanisms and therapeutic frontiers.

Sarcopenia, a progressive age-related decline in skeletal muscle mass and function, is closely linked to impaired regenerative capacity of satellite cells (SCs), also known as satellite cells. Age-dependent SCs dysfunction, driven by intrinsic senescence and niche dysregulation, disrupts activation, proliferation,...
