Histidine decarboxylase inhibition attenuates cancer-associated muscle wasting.

Cancer cachexia is a multifactorial syndrome involving muscle and fat wasting, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction. Across cancer subtypes, pancreatic cancer has one of the highest cachexia incidence rates at ∼80%. Given the advanced age of most pancreatic cancer patients, we...

Exercise-Induced Short-Chain Fatty Acids: A Novel Therapeutic Target in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with Sarcopenia.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus accompanied by sarcopenia is an emerging clinical challenge in aging populations, characterized by coexisting metabolic dysfunction and the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. This comorbidity substantially elevates the risk of frailty, functional impairment,...

Altered Relaxation and Mitochondria-Endoplasmic Reticulum Contacts Precede Major (Mal)Adaptations in Aging Skeletal Muscle and Are Prevented by Exercise.

Sarcopenia, or age-related muscle dysfunction, contributes to morbidity and mortality. Besides decreases in muscle force, sarcopenia is associated with atrophy and fast-to-slow fiber type switching, which is typically secondary to denervation in humans and rodents. However, very little is known...

The association of n-3 fatty acid intake with muscle mass and strength in older adults: A cross-sectional analysis of the UK biobank data.

The main aim was to investigate the association of n-3 fatty acid intake and the n-6/n-3 fatty acid intake ratio with muscle mass and strength in older adults. This study included 61,381 individuals (28,187 men and 33,194 women) aged ≥60...

AI-based CT assessment of sarcopenia in borderline resectable pancreatic Cancer: A narrative review of clinical and technical perspectives.

Sarcopenia, defined as the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, has been associated with poor prognosis in patients with pancreatic cancer, particularly those with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC). Although body composition can be extracted from routine CT...

Sarcosine decreases in sarcopenia and enhances muscle regeneration and adipose thermogenesis by activating anti-inflammatory macrophages.

Age-related changes in circulating metabolites influence systemic physiology and may contribute to diseases such as sarcopenia. Although metabolic dysregulation is closely linked to sarcopenia, the roles of specific metabolites remain unclear. In this study, we performed comprehensive plasma metabolomic and...

Ablation of LAT2 Transporter Causes Intramuscular Glutamine Accumulation and Inhibition of Fasting-Induced Proteolysis.

The neutral amino acid transporter SLC7A8 (LAT2) has been described as a key regulator of metabolic adaptation. LAT2 mutations in human populations have been linked to the early onset of age-related hearing loss and cataract growth. As LAT2 was previously...

Exercise and Nutrition Therapy in a Patient With Glottic Cancer Cachexia Undergoing Chemoradiotherapy: A Case Report.

Cancer cachexia is a common complication in patients undergoing chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for head and neck cancer (HNC), leading to skeletal muscle loss, decreased physical function, and poor prognosis. Cachexia is frequently observed in patients with HNC, yet evidence supporting effective...
