Silencing Myostatin Using In Vivo Self-Assembled siRNA Protects Against Cancer- and Dexamethasone-Induced Muscle Atrophy.

Maintaining skeletal muscle mass is crucial for health, as muscle atrophy caused by drugs, cancer, or aging poses serious risks. However, there are few effective pharmacological interventions targeting muscle atrophy, highlighting the need for new therapeutic strategies. In this study,...

Muscle-Specific Strength Better Predicts Physical Performance Decline Than Conventional Metrics: The I-Lan Longitudinal Aging Study.

Muscle-specific strength (MSS), defined as grip strength normalized to arm muscle mass, may better reflect muscle efficiency than grip strength. Despite its potential utility in diagnosing sarcopenia, longitudinal studies evaluating MSS as a predictor of sarcopenia-related outcomes remain limited. This...

Muscle Abnormalities in Nonhospitalised Patients With Post-COVID-19 Condition.

Post-COVID condition (PCC) affects ~10% of SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals and manifests as persistent symptoms such as fatigue, exercise intolerance and muscle weakness. This study aimed to assess the skeletal muscle of these patients and compare them with healthy controls. Biopsies were...

Sarcopenia Assessment Using Fully Automated Deep Learning Predicts Cardiac Allograft Survival in Heart Transplant Recipients.

Sarcopenia is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with end-stage heart failure. Muscle mass can be quantified via manual segmentation of computed tomography images, but this approach is time-consuming and subject to interobserver variability. We sought to determine whether fully...

Adipose-Derived Extracellular Vesicles and Intercellular Crosstalk With Skeletal Muscle: Implications for Sarcopenic Obesity and Metabolic Dysregulation.

Sarcopenic obesity, characterized by the concurrent presence of excess adiposity and diminished skeletal muscle mass and function, is closely linked to frailty, chronic inflammation, and insulin resistance. The increasing prevalence of sarcopenic obesity is driven by the global aging population,...

Type II fibre atrophy and nuclear disruption in decompensated cirrhosis.

Loss of skeletal muscle mass is a common complication in cirrhosis that is associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Since the specific pathophysiology of cirrhosis-related muscle loss is unclear, we performed histological evaluation of muscle tissue from patients with cirrhosis...

Corn-derived peptide LQQQLL alleviates skeletal muscle attenuation by mTOR signaling pathway and intestinal microbiota.

A novel peptide attenuating skeletal muscle atrophy was prepared, identified, screened from corn and its molecular mechanism was explored using two-step enzymatic hydrolysis, molecular docking, and sarcopenia mice model. The results showed that the DPPH free radical scavenging rate of...

Voluntary Activity Wheel Running Improves Hyperammonaemia-Induced Skeletal Muscle Molecular and Metabolic Perturbations in Mice.

Voluntary exercise improves clinical outcomes in healthy subjects, but increased muscle ammoniagenesis may limit beneficial responses during hyperammonaemia in chronic diseases. Responses to 4-weeks voluntary wheel running (VWR) were compared with usual activity (UA) to determine if hyperammonaemia alters VWR...

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...

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).
