Sex-Related Neuromuscular Adaptations to Youth Obesity: Force, Muscle Mass, and Neural Issues

Young obese are generally stronger than their typically developing counterparts. Strength differences could be partly ascribed to nervous adaptations, due to the loading effect of carrying overweight. We hypothesized that central adaptations of the muscles highly...

Mutation in ribosomal protein in heart and skeletal muscle leads to impaired cardiac contractility in mice

A team of researchers have discovered that a mutation in a ribosomal protein found specifically in heart and skeletal muscle leads to impaired cardiac contractility in mice.

"To examine whether #muscle contraction changes the distribution of #carnitine and its derivatives, unilateral in situ muscle contraction was performed; 60 min muscle contraction showed increased d3-carnitine and its derivative d3-acetylcarnitine in the muscle, indicating that carnitine uptake in cells is promptly converted to acetylcarnitine, consequently, buffering accumulated acetyl-CoA."

Impact of Cancer-Related Sarcopenia on Systemic Immune Status

As secondary sarcopenia, cancer-related sarcopenia has been studied widely in the field of oncology. The sarcopenic status in cancer patients can be caused by comorbid conditions, malnutrition, physical inactivity, tumor-derived factors, cancer therapy, or supportive...
