Neuromuscular impairment at different stages of human sarcopenia.

Degeneration of the motoneuron and neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and loss of motor units (MUs) contribute to age-related muscle wasting and weakness associated with sarcopenia. However, these features have not been comprehensively investigated in humans. This study aimed to compare neuromuscular...

Diagnosis of sarcopenic obesity in Japan: Consensus statement of the Japanese Working Group on Sarcopenic Obesity.

Sarcopenic obesity is the co-existence of obesity and sarcopenia in individuals aged 40-75โ€‰years. The Japanese Working Group on Sarcopenic Obesity has developed diagnostic criteria tailored for the Japanese population, considering their unique characteristics compared with European populations. Our algorithm consists...

-mutated NSCLC is Dependent on Tumor-secreted GDF15.

Cachexia is a wasting syndrome comprised of adipose, muscle, and weight loss observed in cancer patients. Tumor loss-of-function mutations in , a regulator of the energy sensor AMP-activated protein kinase, induce cancer cachexia (CC) in preclinical models and are associated...

Association of body mass index-adjusted calf circumference with appendicular skeletal muscle mass and fall risk in older adults.

This study aims to evaluate the utility of body mass index (BMI)-adjusted calf circumference (CC) in estimating skeletal muscle mass and diagnosing sarcopenia, as well as its association with falls, a common adverse event in sarcopenia. This study used cross-sectional...

Correlates and predictors of sarcopenia among men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer.

Sarcopenia is a predictor of clinical outcomes in men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC); however, correlates and predictors of sarcopenia are poorly understood in this population. The aim of this study was to examine correlates and predictors of sarcopenia...

Skeletal Muscle Proteome Modifications following Antibiotic-Induced Microbial Disturbances in Cancer Cachexia.

Cancer cachexia is an involuntary loss of body weight, mostly of skeletal muscle. Previous research favors the existence of a microbiota-muscle crosstalk, so the aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of microbiota alterations induced by antibiotics on...

Targeted nutritional intervention attenuates experimental lung cancer cachexia.

Cachexia, a syndrome with high prevalence in non-small cell lung cancer patients, impairs quality of life and reduces tolerance and responsiveness to cancer therapy resulting in decreased survival. Optimal nutritional care is pivotal in the treatment of cachexia and a...

KLF10: a point of convergence in cancer cachexia.

Cancer-associated cachexia is a wasting syndrome entailing loss in body mass and a shortened life expectancy. There is currently no effective treatment to abrogate this syndrome, which leads to 20-30% of deaths in patients with cancer. While there have been...

The crosstalk between macrophages and cancer cells potentiates pancreatic cancer cachexia.

With limited treatment options, cachexia remains a major challenge for patients with cancer. Characterizing the interplay between tumor cells and the immune microenvironment may help identify potential therapeutic targets for cancer cachexia. Herein, we investigate the critical role of macrophages...
