    GBA1 inactivation in oligodendrocytes affects myelination and induces neurodegenerative hallmarks and lipid dyshomeostasis in mice

    Mutations in the β-glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) gene do cause the lysosomal storage Gaucher disease (GD) and are among the most frequent genetic risk factors for Parkinson’s disease (PD). So far, studies on both neu...

    Author Correction: Sarcolab pilot study into skeletal muscle’s adaptation to longterm spaceflight

    The original version of this Article contained an error in the spelling of the author Claudio Franceschi, which was incorrectly given as Claudio Francheschi. This has now been corrected in both the PDF and HTM...

    Sarcolab pilot study into skeletal muscle’s adaptation to long-term spaceflight

    Spaceflight causes muscle wasting. The Sarcolab pilot study investigated two astronauts with regards to plantar flexor muscle size, architecture, and function, and to the underlying molecular adaptations in or...

    TCA cycle rewiring fosters metabolic adaptation to oxygen restriction in skeletal muscle from rodents and humans

    In mammals, hypoxic stress management is under the control of the Hypoxia Inducible Factors, whose activity depends on the stabilization of their labile α subunit. In particular, the skeletal muscle appears to...

    Vibration mechanosignals superimposed to resistive exercise result in baseline skeletal muscle transcriptome profiles following chronic disuse in bed rest

    Disuse-induced muscle atrophy is a major concern in aging, in neuromuscular diseases, post-traumatic injury and in microgravity life sciences affecting health and fitness also of crew members in spaceflight. B...
