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. Elucidating effects and mechanisms of adipose tissue and lipids on skeletal muscle...

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. This study aimed to systematically evaluate the synergistic effects of body composition parameters...

Multiomics and cellular senescence profiling of aging human skeletal muscle uncovers Maraviroc as a senotherapeutic approach for sarcopenia.

Cellular senescence is a hallmark of organismal aging but how it drives aging in human tissues is not fully understood. Here we leverage single nucleus multiomics to profile senescence in mononucleated cells of human skeletal muscle and provide the first...

Scutellarein attenuates cancer cachexia-induced muscle atrophy via targeted inhibition of the JAK/STAT pathway.

Cancer cachexia is a multifaceted metabolic syndrome characterized by severe loss of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, diminishing both quality of life and survival in cancer patients. Despite its prevalence, effective treatments for cancer cachexia remain limited. The JAK/STAT signaling...

Pancreatic Cancer-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Enriched with miR-223-5p Promote Skeletal Muscle Wasting Associated with Cachexia.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) with cachexia-related muscle wasting as the main manifestation is associated with poor overall survival. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of inter-organ communication. Here, EVs and EV-microRNAs (miRNAs) are identified as mediate PDAC-skeletal muscle communication. EVs...
