Mitochondria

Mitochondrial bioenergetics are not associated with myofibrillar protein synthesis rates.

Mitochondria represent key organelles influencing cellular homeostasis and have been implicated in the signalling events regulating protein synthesis. We examined whether mitochondrial bioenergetics (oxidative phosphorylation and reactive oxygen species (HO) emission, ROS) measured in vitro in permeabilized muscle fibres represent...

Unacylated Ghrelin Protects Against Age-Related Loss of Muscle Mass and Contractile Dysfunction in Skeletal Muscle.

Sarcopenia, the progressive loss of muscle mass and function, universally affects older adults and is closely associated with frailty and reduced quality of life. Despite the inevitable consequences of sarcopenia and its relevance to healthspan, no pharmacological therapies are currently...
