Interplay Between mTORC1 Signaling and Iron Homeostasis in Muscle Atrophy.

The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) plays an important role in maintaining skeletal muscle homeostasis by regulating cell growth, protein degradation, and nutrient sensing. Beyond its role in muscle growth and atrophy, recent findings suggest that mTORC1 also...

Muscle Abnormalities in Nonhospitalised Patients With Post-COVID-19 Condition.

Post-COVID condition (PCC) affects ~10% of SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals and manifests as persistent symptoms such as fatigue, exercise intolerance and muscle weakness. This study aimed to assess the skeletal muscle of these patients and compare them with healthy controls. Biopsies were...

Type II fibre atrophy and nuclear disruption in decompensated cirrhosis.

Loss of skeletal muscle mass is a common complication in cirrhosis that is associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Since the specific pathophysiology of cirrhosis-related muscle loss is unclear, we performed histological evaluation of muscle tissue from patients with cirrhosis...

Sucla2 Knock-Out in Skeletal Muscle Yields Mouse Model of Mitochondrial Myopathy With Muscle Type-Specific Phenotypes.

Pathogenic variants in subunits of succinyl-CoA synthetase (SCS) are associated with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy in humans. SCS catalyses the conversion of succinyl-CoA to succinate coupled with substrate-level phosphorylation of either ADP or GDP in the TCA cycle. This report presents a...
