Adipose-Derived Extracellular Vesicles and Intercellular Crosstalk With Skeletal Muscle: Implications for Sarcopenic Obesity and Metabolic Dysregulation.

Sarcopenic obesity, characterized by the concurrent presence of excess adiposity and diminished skeletal muscle mass and function, is closely linked to frailty, chronic inflammation, and insulin resistance. The increasing prevalence of sarcopenic obesity is driven by the global aging population,...

Characterizing sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity in patients aged 65 years and over, at risk of mobility disability: a multicenter observational trial (SARA-OBS).

Aging is associated with a progressive change of body composition characterized by muscle mass decline and accumulation of adipose tissue that can lead to sarcopenia and obesity, respectively. The prevalence of sarcopenia is poorly known given the different parameters and...

Improving Muscle Function Through a Multimodal Behavioural Intervention for Knee Osteoarthritis and Obesity: The POMELO Trial.

Treatments aimed at improving physical function and body composition, including reducing fat mass (FM) and increasing muscle mass, may benefit individuals with advanced knee osteoarthritis (OA) and obesity. We investigated the feasibility and efficacy of a multimodal behavioural intervention compared...

CircGLIS3 Inhibits Intramuscular Adipogenesis and Alleviates Skeletal Muscle Fat Infiltration.

Intramuscular fat (IMF) is a key determinant of meat quality. Excessive IMF deposition, commonly observed in human obesity and aging, negatively affects skeletal muscle function. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play critical regulatory roles in muscle and fat development, as well as...

The Combination of Fat Distribution and BMI Redefines Obesity: Result From NHANES.

Body mass index (BMI) has well-recognized limitations, particularly in the context of the 'obesity paradox', where higher BMI does not consistently evaluate adverse outcomes. These limitations underscore the need for alternative approaches. This study aimed to redefine obesity using anthropometric...

Oral apigenin prevents obesity-related muscular atrophy, but not obesity itself, in middle-aged rats fed a high-calorie diet.

Obesity constitutes a growing global health concern, affecting individuals during the aging process. Flavonoids that increase tissue NAD+โ€ฏlevels, such as apigenin (Api), are proposed for the treatment of obesity and age-related diseases. Thus, this study aimed to provide initial preclinical...

The role of body composition in the development of diabetes mellitus among childhood cancer survivors, and novel intervention strategies to mitigate diabetes risk.

The growing population of childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) experiences a large burden of comorbidities, including a markedly increased risk of diabetes mellitus. Among CCSs, prediabetes and diabetes are important risk factors for subsequent cardiovascular disease, which is a leading cause...

Impact of Adipose Tissue and Lipids on Skeletal Muscle in Sarcopenia.

Although the decline in muscle mass, function and increased visceral obesity are attracting substantial attention in the ageing society, approved treatment modalities for sarcopenia/sarcopenic obesity (SO) remain limited.

Osteosarcopenic obesity: A systematic review and a call for consensus on definitions and diagnostic criteria.

Osteosarcopenic obesity (OSO) is a clinical and functional condition characterized by the coexistence of osteopenia/osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and obesity (excess adiposity). Currently, the lack of consensus on diagnostic criteria and cut-off values complicates prevalence estimates and limits its potential role as...

Sarcopenia, Muscle Mass and Protein Intake in Adults Older Than 65โ€‰Years After Earlier Bariatric Surgery.

Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is a proven treatment for obesity. Yet weight loss is accompanied by loss of muscle which may predispose to sarcopenia. The prevalence of low muscle mass in older adults after MBS remains unexplored, even though...
