Durable Muscle Extracellular Matrix Engineered with Adhesive Phenolic Moieties for Effective Skeletal Muscle Regeneration in Muscle Atrophy.

Muscle atrophy detrimentally impacts health and exacerbates physical disability, leading to increased mortality. In particular, sarcopenia, aging-related degenerative muscle loss, necessitates urgent remedies. Current approaches for treating muscle atrophy include exercise and nutrition, while drug exploration remains in its early...

Muscle Mass and Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists: Adaptive or Maladaptive Response to Weight Loss?

Recent studies have shown that pharmacologic weight loss with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and combination therapies is approaching magnitudes achieved with surgery. However, as more weight loss is achieved, there is concern for potential adverse effects on muscle...

Rodent model intervention for prevention and optimal management of sarcopenia: A systematic review on the beneficial effects of nutrients & non-nutrients and exercise to improve skeletal muscle health.

Sarcopenia is a common musculoskeletal disorder characterized by degenerative processes and is strongly linked to an increased susceptibility to falls, fractures, physical limitations, and mortality. Several models have been used to explore therapeutic and preventative measures as well as to...

Myofiber-specific FoxP1 knockout protects against pancreatic cancer-induced muscle wasting in male but not female mice.

Cancer cachexia affects up to 80% of cancer patients and results in reduced quality of life and survival. We previously demonstrated that the transcriptional repressor Forkhead box P1 (FoxP1) is upregulated in skeletal muscle of cachectic mice and people with...
