Stable clocks, rewired rhythms: circadian remodeling in skeletal muscle during aging, cachexia, and type 2 diabetes.

In mammals, nearly every cell contains an intrinsic circadian clock that functions both as a timekeeping system and an environmental sensor, integrating external cues to maintain alignment between internal physiology and the external environment. While the core clock machinery is...

Restoration of circadian rhythm as novel targets against sarcopenia.

Sarcopenia, characterized by the age-related decline in skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function, is associated with high healthcare costs and significant health risks, including falls, fractures, functional decline, and mortality. Despite its prevalence and extensive research, there are currently no...

Cortisol Circadian Rhythm and Sarcopenia in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have elevated late-night cortisol levels and a flattened circadian rhythm. Cortisol oversecretion mediates muscle breakdown and reduces muscle strength and mass, thus possibly leading to sarcopenia. This study first investigated the association between...
