Metastatic progression significantly reduces survival rates and complicates treatment strategies in various cancers. Our study introduces an mRNA therapy for metastasis inhibition by targeting activin A overexpression, a pivotal driver of metastasis and cachexia. Utilizing follistatin mRNA lipid nanoparticles, we...
Exercise preserves neuromuscular function in aging through unknown mechanisms. Skeletal muscle fibroblasts (FIB) and stem cells (MuSC) are abundant in skeletal muscle and reside close to neuromuscular junctions, but their relative roles in motor neuron maintenance remain undescribed. Using direct...
Muscle atrophy detrimentally impacts health and exacerbates physical disability, leading to increased mortality. In particular, sarcopenia, aging-related degenerative muscle loss, necessitates urgent remedies. Current approaches for treating muscle atrophy include exercise and nutrition, while drug exploration remains in its early...
Sarcopenia is characterized by the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function, significantly impacting overall health and quality of life in older adults. This narrative review explores emerging targets and potential treatments for sarcopenia, aiming to provide a...
Cancer cachexia complicates advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, it remains unclear how often cachexia occurs and how it affects the course of chemotherapy in patients receiving first-line systemic therapy. We conducted a multicentre, prospective observational study and enrolled...

This study aimed to investigate the predictive capacity of lymphocyte subpopulations, sarcopenia and myosteatosis for clinical outcomes in patients who underwent gastric cancer surgery. Additionally, the prognostic significance of CD3+/CD4+ cells in conjunction with myosteatosis was explored. A cohort of...

Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) is a syndrome characterized by a long-term muscle weakness often observed in sepsis-surviving patients during the chronic phase. Although ICU-AW is independently associated with increased mortality, effective therapies have yet to be established. Programmed death-1...

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...

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...

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....
