Assessing the Skeletal Muscle Pump During Lower Limb Counterpressure: Lags and Causality in Cardiovascular Regulation.

Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a prevalent condition among older adults, characterised by a sudden drop in blood pressure upon standing, often leading to dizziness and increased risk of falls, morbidity and mortality. The skeletal muscle pump is thought to be...

CircGLIS3 Inhibits Intramuscular Adipogenesis and Alleviates Skeletal Muscle Fat Infiltration.

Intramuscular fat (IMF) is a key determinant of meat quality. Excessive IMF deposition, commonly observed in human obesity and aging, negatively affects skeletal muscle function. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play critical regulatory roles in muscle and fat development, as well as...

Dual Roles of HbA1c Variability and Body Composition for Cardiovascular Risk: A Cohort Study of 8224 Adults With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Glycaemic variability and body composition are emerging predictors of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, their combined impact remains unclear. We investigated the association among HbA1c variability, body composition parameters and cardiovascular outcomes in...

ODIASP: An Open-Source Software for Automated SMI Determination-Application to an Inpatient Population.

The diagnosis of malnutrition has evolved with the GLIM recommendations, which advocate for integrating phenotypic criteria, including muscle mass measurement. The GLIM framework specifically suggests using skeletal muscle index (SMI) assessed via CT scan at the third lumbar level (L3)...

Impact of sarcopenia and changes in skeletal muscle mass on prognosis of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma receiving chemotherapy with first-line gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel: a prospective study.

Sarcopenia is an important prognostic factor for cancer patients. Here, we prospectively examined the effects of sarcopenia on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) treated with first-line gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel (GnP). This...

The role of body composition in the development of diabetes mellitus among childhood cancer survivors, and novel intervention strategies to mitigate diabetes risk.

The growing population of childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) experiences a large burden of comorbidities, including a markedly increased risk of diabetes mellitus. Among CCSs, prediabetes and diabetes are important risk factors for subsequent cardiovascular disease, which is a leading cause...

Skeletal Muscle-Specific Deletion of E3 Ligase Asb2 Enhances Muscle Mass and Strength.

Maintaining skeletal muscle mass and strength is crucial to prevent sarcopenia during healthy ageing. Ankyrin repeat and suppressor of cytokine signalling box protein 2 (Asb2), an E3 ligase, has been implicated in regulating muscle mass; however, its roles on muscle...

Impact of Adipose Tissue and Lipids on Skeletal Muscle in Sarcopenia.

Although the decline in muscle mass, function and increased visceral obesity are attracting substantial attention in the ageing society, approved treatment modalities for sarcopenia/sarcopenic obesity (SO) remain limited.

Late-Stage Skeletal Muscle Transcriptome in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Shows a BMP4-Induced Molecular Signature.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal X-linked recessive disease due to loss-of-function variants in the DYSTROPHIN gene. DMD-related skeletal muscle wasting is typified by an aberrant immune response involving upregulation of the TGFฮฒ family of cytokines, like TGFฮฒ1 and...

Impaired Autophagic Flux in Skeletal Muscle of Plectin-Related Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex With Muscular Dystrophy.

Plectin, a multifunctional cytolinker and intermediate filament stabilizing protein, is essential for muscle fibre integrity and function. Mutations in the human plectin gene (PLEC) cause autosomal recessive epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy (EBS-MD). The disorganization and aggregation of desmin...

Integrating Body Composition and Nutritional Indices: A Novel Prognostic Tool for Survival in Pancreatic Cancer.

Sarcopenia and malnutrition have been independently associated with a poorer prognosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), but their combined association with patient outcomes is not fully understood.

Soyasapogenol B prevents sarcopenia by increasing skeletal muscle mass and function through the Sirt1/PGC-1ฮฑ and PI3K pathway.

Sarcopenia, caused by aging, is characterized by the reduction of muscle mass and function. In this study, we investigated the effects of soyasapogenol B on skeletal muscle and the underlying mechanisms to determine its potential as a prevention for sarcopenia....
