A Novel Research Paradigm for Sarcopenia of Limb Muscles: Lessons From the Perpetually Working Diaphragm's Anti-Aging Mechanisms.

Skeletal muscle function and mass continuously decrease during aging. Most studies target limb muscles owing to their direct impact on mobility and falls risk. The diaphragm (DIA), also a type of skeletal muscle with different phenotype, has received less attention....

Multimodal interventions for cachexia management.

Cachexia (disease-related wasting) is a complex metabolic syndrome which occurs in people with chronic illnesses, including cancer, HIV/AIDS, kidney disease, heart disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). People with cachexia experience unintentional weight loss, muscle loss, fatigue, loss of...

Causal relationships of circulating amino acids with sarcopenia-related traits: A bidirectional Mendelian randomization study.

Recent studies have indicated a correlation between certain Amino acids (AAs) and sarcopenia. However, the exact causal relationship among these associations is still unclear. This study aims to elucidate the causal relationships between 20 types of AAs and the phenotypic...

Detrimental Effects of ฮฒ2-Microglobulin on Muscle Metabolism: Evidence From Inย Vitro, Animal and Human Research.

ฮฒ2-Microglobulin (B2M) has garnered considerable interest as a potential pro-ageing factor, leading to speculation about its involvement in muscle metabolism and the development of sarcopenia, a key component of ageing phenotypes. To explore this hypothesis, we conducted a comprehensive investigation...

Selpercatinib mitigates cancer cachexia independent of anti-tumor activity in the HT1080 tumor model.

Anorexia is a major cause of cancer cachexia and is induced by growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF15), which activates the rearranged during transfection (RET) protein tyrosine kinase in the hindbrain through GDF family receptor ฮฑ-like (GFRAL), raising the possibility of targeting...

Prevalence and Prognostic Significance of Sarcopenia in Gynecologic Oncology: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Sarcopenia in gynaecologic oncology patients has garnered increasing attention, but its prevalence has not been comprehensively summarized. This study aims to integrate the prevalence of sarcopenia in this population through systematic evaluation and meta-analysis, providing a reference for future clinical...

Exploring opportunities to better characterize the effects of dietary protein on health across the lifespan.

Remarkable advances have been made over the last thirty years in understanding the role of dietary protein in optimizing muscle health across the lifespan. That is, acute (<24h) stable isotope-derived measures of muscle protein synthesis have led to established recommendations...

The lived experience of renal cachexia: An interpretive phenomenological analysis.

Chronic kidney disease is common, affecting up to 13 % of the global population, and is predicted to become the fifth leading cause of 'life years lost' by 2040. Individuals with end-stage kidney disease commonly develop complications such as protein-energy...

Ubiquitylomics: An Emerging Approach for Profiling Protein Ubiquitylation in Skeletal Muscle.

Skeletal muscle is a highly adaptable tissue, finely tuned by various physiological and pathological factors. Whilst the pivotal role of skeletal muscle in overall health is widely acknowledged, unravelling the underlying molecular mechanisms poses ongoing challenges. Protein ubiquitylation, a crucial...

Defining and Addressing Research Priorities in Cancer Cachexia through Transdisciplinary Collaboration.

For many patients, the cancer continuum includes a syndrome known as cancer-associated cachexia (CAC), which encompasses the unintended loss of body weight and muscle mass, and is often associated with fat loss, decreased appetite, lower tolerance and poorer response to...

Quality of life endpoints in cancer cachexia clinical trials: Systematic review 3 of the cachexia endpoints series.

The use of patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) of quality of life (QOL) is common in cachexia trials. Patients' self-report on health, functioning, wellbeing, and perceptions of care, represent important measures of efficacy. This review describes the frequency, variety, and reporting of...

Sarcopenia of Ageing: Does a Healthier Lifestyle Matter in Reversing the Trajectory? A Brief Narrative Review and a Call for Action in Saudi Arabia.

The concept of health span is an emerging topic in recent years, with a truly palpable relevance to public health. With ageing comes a loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and performance, which is termed as sarcopenia. Sarcopenia is a...
