Dexamethasone

hUC-MSCs and derived exosomes attenuate DEX-induced muscle atrophy through modulation of estrogen signaling pathway.

Sarcopenia, a multifactorial syndrome characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength, combined with impaired physical function, is associated primarily with aging but also driven by chronic inflammation, immobility, and endocrine dysregulation. It leads to increased risks of...

ZBED6 Knockout Prevents Ageing- and Dexamethasone-Induced Muscle Atrophy via Dkk3 in Pig and Mice.

Effective treatments for skeletal muscle atrophy, a debilitating condition linked to ageing and glucocorticoid therapy, remain lacking. Zinc finger BED-type containing 6 (ZBED6), a transcriptional repressor, enhances muscle growth and protects against sepsis-induced atrophy, but its role in ageing- and...

Lonafarnib Protects Against Muscle Atrophy Induced by Dexamethasone.

Muscle atrophy, including glucocorticoid-induced muscle wasting from treatments such as dexamethasone (DEX), results in significant reductions in muscle mass, strength and function. This study investigates the potential of lonafarnib, a farnesyltransferase inhibitor, to counteract DEX-induced muscle atrophy by targeting key...

KLF13 restrains Dll4-muscular Notch2 axis to improve the muscle atrophy.

Muscle atrophy can cause muscle dysfunction and weakness. Krรผppel-like factor 13 (KLF13), a central regulator of cellular energy metabolism, is highly expressed in skeletal muscles and implicated in the pathogenesis of several diseases. This study investigated the role of KLF13...
