Skeletal muscle wasting results from numerous conditions, such as sarcopenia, glucocorticoid therapy or intensive care. It prevents independent living in the elderly, predisposes to secondary diseases, and ultimately reduces lifespan. There is no approved drug therapy and the major causative...
Oestrogen receptor alpha (ERฮฑ) plays an important role in maintaining mitochondrial function and regulating metabolism in skeletal muscle. However, its alterations and potential mechanisms in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) remain incompletely understood. In this study, we demonstrated the protective role...

Parkinson's disease (PD) and sarcopenia are prevalent age-related conditions that often coexist in affected individuals. Sarcopenia is particularly common among PD patients, with severe cases affecting approximately one in five individuals with the disease. Furthermore, sarcopenia is closely linked to...

Sarcopenia, a condition associated with aging, involves progressive loss of muscle mass, strength, and function, leading to impaired mobility, health, and increased mortality. The underlying mechanisms remain unclear, which limits the development of effective therapeutic interventions. Emerging evidence implicates chronodisruption...
Transcriptional intermediary factor 1ฮณ (TIF1ฮณ) is a negative regulator of TGF-ฮฒ1 signalling and has been associated with patient survival in renal cell carcinoma. However, its role in diabetes mellitus (DM), particularly in diabetic nephropathy (DN), remains unclear. DN is the...

The interrelation between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and sarcopenia has emerged as a significant concern due to its systemic impact on metabolic health. However, therapeutic approaches targeting the liver-muscle axis remain underdeveloped. Oxidative stress and inflammatory pathways are key...
Sarcopenia is the age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. Recently, research has focused on defining diagnostic criteria for this condition, now recognized as a muscle disease with a specific identifying code (ICD-10: M62.84). The diagnostic process for sarcopenia...
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may influence musculoskeletal health. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of three different NSAIDS: naproxen sodium, ibuprofen, flurbiprofen or a placebo on musculoskeletal adaptations in rodents with or without 6โweeks of aerobic...

Hypothalamic inflammation plays a pivotal role in appetite dysregulation across various pathological conditions, including cancer cachexia. However, delivering anti-inflammatory agents to microglia, key mediators of hypothalamic inflammation, remains challenging due to the unsurmountable blood-brain barrier (BBB). To overcome this challenge,...
Around 80% of patients with advanced cancer have cancer cachexia (CC), a serious complication for which there are currently no FDA-approved treatments. Nuciferine (NF) is the main active ingredient of lotus leaf, which has anti-inflammatory, anti-tumour and other effects. The...

Metformin has effects on multiple biological systems relevant to ageing and has been posited as a candidate therapy for sarcopenia and physical frailty. We aimed to test the efficacy and safety of metformin, a candidate geroprotector, to improve physical performance...
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...

Macrophages are key innate immune cells in the muscle environment of sarcopenia patients, significantly influencing muscle stem cell (MuSC) proliferation and differentiation. However, prolonged activation of macrophages can hinder muscle recovery. In this study, it synthesizes lipoic acid-modified gold nanoparticles...
Knee-osteoarthritis (OA) is often associated with increased intestinal permeability, potentially causing sarcopenia, and mobility issues. Current treatments are ineffective. The objective of this study was to investigate if butyrate improves sarcopenia and physical function in knee-OA patients, and if improvements...

In patients receiving anti-cancer treatment, cachexia results in poorer oncological outcomes. However, there is limited understanding and no systematic review of oncological endpoints in cancer cachexia (CC) trials. This review examines oncological endpoints in CC clinical trials. An electronic literature...
