Associations of Coexisting Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Sarcopenia-Related Abnormalities With Adverse Clinical Outcomes Across Obesity States.
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is associated with adverse liver and non-liver outcomes, but the impact of coexisting sarcopenia-related abnormalities (e.g., low muscle strength [MS], muscle mass, and physical performance) remains unclear. In a prospective UK Biobank cohort (n...

Sulforaphane, a bioactive isothiocyanate abundant in cruciferous vegetables, has emerged as a potential multi-target therapeutic agent capable of mitigating these pathological processes. Here, using evidence from preclinical and clinical literature, we review the mechanistic and translational evidence linking sulforaphane with...

BACKGROUND
Impaired muscle regeneration is a key contributor to age-related muscle decline, yet the molecular mechanisms linking muscle water homeostasis to regenerative failure remain incompletely understood. Aquaporin-4 (AQP4), a major skeletal muscle water channel, may have functions beyond water transport that...

BACKGROUND
Sarcopenia and frailty are frequent in patients with liver cirrhosis and are associated with morbidity and mortality. Given the limitations of computed tomography (CT) for routine assessment of muscle loss and the need for practical bedside assessment, we aimed to...

BACKGROUND
Urolithin A (UA) and urolithin B (UB) are gut microbiota-derived metabolites of ellagitannins reported to influence mitochondrial function, inflammation and muscle metabolism. Their comparative transcriptomic effects in human skeletal muscle cells remain undefined. We characterized UA- and UB-induced molecular responses...

Dietary flavonoids often require microbial metabolism to generate bioactive metabolites that influence host physiology. Hesperidin, a citrus flavanone glycoside, exhibits limited intestinal absorption and depends on gut microbial biotransformation to yield its active aglycone, hesperetin. Hesperetin activates CDGSH iron-sulfur domain...

BACKGROUND
Cancer cachexia, a debilitating syndrome characterized by muscle wasting, significantly impacts survival in gastrointestinal cancers like pancreatic cancer. Emerging evidence suggests a link between cancer cachexia and disrupted circadian rhythms in peripheral tissues, including locomotor muscles. However, circadian dysregulation in...
