Current research literature suggests that low sex hormone concentration may be among the key mechanism for sarcopenia and muscle weakness. Within the European large scale MYOAGE project, the role of sex hormones, estrogens and testosterone, in causing the aging-related loss of muscle mass and ...
Professor Yates said, "Fat-free mass is all of yourbody partsthat do not contain fat, of which the largest component ismuscle mass. A loss of fat-free mass occurs with aging but can be further affected by lifestyle behaviors. Anything that acts to increase the loss of fat-free mass can...
Sarcopenia, a disorder that involves the generalized loss of skeletal muscle strength and mass, was formally recognized as a disease by its inclusion in the International Classification of Diseases in 2016. Sarcopenia typically affects older people, but younger individuals with chronic disease are also...

Fourth, while maintaining and increasing physical activity is currently recommended for preventing muscle loss, no specific recommendations are currently made with regards to limiting sedentary time to prevent sarcopenia. Although a few early cross-sectional studies suggest that there is an association betw...
During ageing, there are significant changes in body composition with the loss of muscle mass and function (termed sarcopenia) and/or increased adiposity [17]. Both sarcopenia and adiposity lead to structural and functional modifications in the skeletal muscle including impaired mitochondrial ...
Forced caloric restriction led to body weight loss and reduced body fat content but increased not only muscle but also liver insulin sensitivity (38, 39, 40, 41). We cannot exclude the possibility that a changed body composition in CD36−/− mice compared with CD36+/+ mice effects ...
Interestingly, an unloading-induced increase in MuRF-1 expression and soleus muscle loss were effectively prevented by the use of a selective p38 inhibitor [89]. It is clear that p38 MAPK activation during the initial period of unloading may be associated with the action of ...
Thus, the gut microbiota may represent a malleable therapeutic target for the prevention and reversal of muscle loss with age and age-associated decline in cognition. No prior studies have investigated the effects of a supplement containing both protein and prebiotics on physical and cognitive ...
P03 and P04 both harbour single, large-scale heteroplasmic mtDNA deletions within the major arc of the mtDNA sequence, leading to the loss of numerous mt-mRNA and mt-tRNA genes (Fig. 5A; Supplementary Table S1). Figure 5 IMC results from one patient from each patient group. (A) Location...
