Weight Loss in Cancer and the 2017 Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events-Dangerous and Misleading.

Accurate toxicity reporting in cancer clinical trials is necessary to promote regulatory decision making. Up to 85% of those with some cancers (e.g., oesophagus, head and neck, and pancreas) experience significant progressive weight loss (WL) throughout treatment. Therefore, it is...

Therapeutic Targeting of Decr1 Ameliorates Cardiomyopathy by Suppressing Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Oxidation in Diabetic Mice.

A significant increase in mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (FAO) is now increasingly recognized as one of the metabolic alterations in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying mitochondrial FAO impairment in DCM remain to be fully elucidated. A type...

Paradoxical Effect of Myosteatosis on the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Response in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) has shifted from tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based therapy, improving outcomes but with variable individual responses. This study investigated the prognostic implications of pretreatment low skeletal muscle mass...

An Attention-Aware Multi-Task Learning Framework Identifies Candidate Targets for Drug Repurposing in Sarcopenia.

Sarcopenia presents a pressing public health concern due to its association with age-related muscle mass decline, strength loss and reduced physical performance, particularly in the growing older population. Given the absence of approved pharmacological therapies for sarcopenia, the need to...

BIO101 in Sarcopenic Seniors at Risk of Mobility Disability: Results of a Double-Blind Randomised Interventional Phase 2b Trial.

Sarcopenia is a progressive muscle disorder that may lead to mobility disability. No pharmaceutical interventions are currently available, and treatment relies on physical exercise and nutrition. The aim of SARA-INT was to investigate whether BIO101 (20-hydroxyecdysone), an activator of the...

Zinc Alleviates Diabetic Muscle Atrophy via Modulation of the SIRT1/FoxO1 Autophagy Pathway Through GPR39.

Muscle atrophy is a severe complication of diabetes, with autophagy playing a critical role in its progression. Zinc has been shown to alleviate hyperglycaemia and several diabetes-related complications, but its direct role in mediating diabetic muscle atrophy remains unclear. This...

Multicomponent Interventions for Adults With Cancer Cachexia: A Systematic Review.

Cancer cachexia has substantial impacts on people's quality of life. There is no current gold standard treatment, but the complex pathophysiology of cachexia suggests that a multitargeted and individualised treatment approach is needed. We aimed to evaluate the extent to...

Anamorelin Efficacy in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Patients With Cachexia: Insights From ROMANA 1 and ROMANA 2.

Cancer cachexia presents a significant challenge, but the ghrelin agonist anamorelin shows promise as a potential treatment. This study examined whether the baseline systemic inflammatory response (SIR) (measured by the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score [mGPS]), low BMI or greater weight...

Aptamer-Conjugated Exosomes Ameliorate Diabetes-Induced Muscle Atrophy by Enhancing SIRT1/FoxO1/3a-Mediated Mitochondrial Function.

Muscle atrophy is associated with Type 2 diabetes mellitus, which reduces the quality of life and lacks effective treatment strategies. Previously, it was determined that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cell (hucMSC)-derived exosomes (EXOs) ameliorate diabetes-induced muscle atrophy. However, the...

Role of cardiolipin in skeletal muscle function and its therapeutic implications.

Cardiolipin, a unique phospholipid predominantly present in the inner mitochondrial membrane, is critical for maintaining mitochondrial integrity and function. Its dimeric structure and role in supporting mitochondrial dynamics, energy production, and mitophagy make it indispensable for skeletal muscle health. This...

The Effect of Anti-Activin Receptor Type IIA and Type IIB Antibody on Muscle, Bone and Blood in Healthy and Osteosarcopenic Mice.

Anti-Activin Receptor Type IIA and Type IIB antibody (ฮฑActRIIA/IIB ab) is a recently developed drug class that targets the activin receptor signalling pathway. Inhibition of receptor ligands (activins, myostatin, growth differentiation factor 11, etc.) can lead to skeletal muscle hypertrophy,...

Sheer drop ahead: reviewing sarcopenia outcomes in elderly patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

The global prevalence of obesity among elderly patients continues to rise. Despite the availability of new antiobesity medications, bariatric surgery remains an effective treatment option for carefully selected candidates. However, it is not risk-free, especially in a vulnerable population, predisposing...

Transcriptomic Profiling Reveals 17ฮฒ-Estradiol Treatment Represses Ubiquitin-Proteasomal Mediators in Skeletal Muscle of Ovariectomized Mice.

With a decline of 17ฮฒ-estradiol (E2) at menopause, E2 has been implicated in the accompanied loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength. We aimed at characterizing transcriptomic responses of skeletal muscle to E2 in female mice, testing the hypothesis that...

Sarcopenia and cachexia: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic interventions.

Sarcopenia is defined as a muscle-wasting syndrome that occurs with accelerated aging, while cachexia is a severe wasting syndrome associated with conditions such as cancer and immunodeficiency disorders, which cannot be fully addressed through conventional nutritional supplementation. Sarcopenia can be...
