Sarcopenia

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...

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...

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...

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...

Adherence to Physical Activity and Incident Mobility Disability in Older Adults With Mobility Limitations.

Preservation of mobility independence is a primary goal in older adults with physical frailty and sarcopenia (PF&S). Interventions based on the combination of physical activity (PA) and nutritional counselling have been indicated as strategies for the management of this condition,...

Association of Alzheimer's Disease Blood Biomarkers With Sarcopenia Incidence and Progression: A 12-Year Population-Based Study.

Sarcopenia is a complex and multifactorial condition, and recent studies have explored the role of neurological markers in its diagnosis and prediction. Although associations have been identified between reduced muscle strength, slow walking speed and elevated neurofilament levels (NfL), long-term...

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...
