Relationship between DNA methylation changes and skeletal muscle mass
BackgroundSarcopenia is a disease diagnosed in the elderly. In patients with sarcopenia, the muscle mass decreases every year. The occurrence of...

Associations between PBMC whole genome transcriptome, muscle strength, muscle mass, and physical performance in healthy home-dwelling older women
Increasing age is accompanied by many changes, including declining functional skeletal muscle health and immune dysfunction. Peripheral blood...

Muscle Strength Reference Values and Correlation with Appendicular Muscle Mass in Mexican Children and Adolescents
Strength and muscle mass are important determinants of health status, and reference values for pediatric populations from every country or geographic...

Restoring skeletal muscle mass as an independent determinant of liver fat deposition improvement in MAFLD
AimsCross-sectional studies have demonstrated the association of skeletal muscle mass with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), while...

Decrease in Muscle Mass in Diet-Induced Visceral Obesity in Male Wistar Rats: Relationship with Hormonal and Metabolic Parameters
AbstractDecrease in muscle mass, as a rule, develops with the aging of the body, but in obesity the signs of decrease in mass and functional activity...

D3Creatine Dilution as a Direct, Non-invasive and Accurate Measurement of Muscle Mass for Aging Research
Initial definitions of sarcopenia included the age-associated loss of skeletal muscle mass that was presumed to be associated with late-life reduced...
-
The prevalence of low muscle mass associated with obesity in the USA
BackgroundSarcopenia is defined as age-related low muscle mass and function, and can also describe the loss of muscle mass in certain medical...

Skeletal Muscle Receptors
This amazing chapter takes a deep dive into the realm of skeletal muscle receptors, particularly emphasizing the Vitamin D receptor (VDR) and the... -
The Combined Oral Stable Isotope Assessment of Muscle (COSIAM) reveals D-3 creatine derived muscle mass as a standout cross-sectional biomarker of muscle physiology vitality in older age
Validated diagnostics of skeletal muscle vitality could benefit clinical and basic science in terms of mechanistic insights and in determining the...

The endothelial Dll4–muscular Notch2 axis regulates skeletal muscle mass
Adult skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue that readily reduces or gains its mass in response to mechanical and metabolic stimulation; however,...

Sex-Related Neuromuscular Adaptations to Youth Obesity: Force, Muscle Mass, and Neural Issues
Young obese are generally stronger than their typically develo** counterparts. Strength differences could be partly ascribed to nervous... -
Relationship of Size and Mass Characteristics, Indicators of Metabolism, and Mercury Concentration in the Muscle Tissue of Freshwater Fish from Tropical Vietnam
AbstractThe main chemical composition and content of mercury in the muscles of freshwater fish species Xenentodon cancila, Notopterus notopterus,...

Senolytic treatment does not mitigate oxidative stress-induced muscle atrophy but improves muscle force generation in CuZn superoxide dismutase knockout mice
Oxidative stress is associated with tissue dysfunctions that can lead to reduced health. Prior work has shown that oxidative stress contributes to...

Muscle Progenitor Cell Fusion in the Maintenance of Skeletal Muscle
Skeletal muscle possesses a resident, multipotent stem cell population that is essential for its repair and maintenance throughout life. Here I... -
Combined in vivo muscle mass, muscle protein synthesis and muscle protein breakdown measurement: a ‘Combined Oral Stable Isotope Assessment of Muscle (COSIAM)’ approach
Optimising approaches for measuring skeletal muscle mass and turnover that are widely applicable, minimally invasive and cost effective is crucial in...

Integrated transcriptome analysis reveals roles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in caprine skeletal muscle mass and meat quality
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the growth and development of skeletal muscle. However, there is limited information on goats....

Basic Structure of Skeletal Muscle
Building on the foundational understanding established in the first chapter, Chap. 2 explores the burgeoning... -
Genes encoding agrin (AGRN) and neurotrypsin (PRSS12) are associated with muscle mass, strength and plasma C-terminal agrin fragment concentration
Although physiological data suggest that neuromuscular junction (NMJ) dysfunction is a principal mechanism underpinning sarcopenia, genetic studies...

Skeletal Muscle Energy Metabolism & Contraction
Skeletal muscle contraction and energy metabolism are closely intertwined processes essential for maintaining physiological functions and supporting... -
How soon do metabolic alterations and oxidative distress precede the reduction of muscle mass and strength in Wistar rats in aging process?
Here we investigate metabolic changes, the antioxidant system and the accumulation of oxidative damage in muscles with different fiber types during...
