Age-related Changes in GDNF Content of Skeletal Muscle
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a very potent neurotrophic factor that promotes the maintenance and survival of peripheral motor neurons and is expressed in skeletal muscle. Progressive loss of motor neurons occurs with aging, and over time this degeneration elicits devastating consequences on the physical performance and quality of life of the elderly. One possible explan...
متن کاملSkeletal age changes in puberty.
Changes in skeletal age and height of 34 Leeds schoolboys were studied in a four year longitudinal survey covering puberty. Tanner and Whitehouse method TW2 was used. In each boy, skeletal age advanced rapidly during puberty, reaching a peak at an age related to that of peak height velocity. The importance of recognising that this acceleration of bone age is normal is stressed, in order to avoi...
متن کاملComparison of age-related changes in wrinkling and sagging of the skin in Caucasian females and in Japanese females.
We compared age-related changes in wrinkles in eight areas of facial skin (forehead, glabella, upper eyelid, corner of the eye, lower eyelid, nasolabial groove, cheek, and corner of the mouth) and sagging in the subzygomatic area of Caucasian females and of Japanese females. The subjects studied included 85 healthy Caucasian females (ages 20-69 years) living in Cincinnati in the U.S. and 70 Jap...
متن کاملThoracic geometry changes during equine locomotion
Classic descriptions of rib motion during ventilation include three-dimensional movements that are tied to the locomotor pattern. It is still not clear how chest wall and diaphragmatic movements contribute to ventilation. The purpose of this paper was to evaluate how gait affects local thoracic geometry in horses. Hemispherical markers were placed on the skin over the ribs and spine to calculat...
متن کاملInvestigation of age-related changes in LMNA splicing and expression of progerin in human skeletal muscles.
Age-related changes in splice-forms of LMNA, which encodes the nuclear lamina proteins lamin A/C, have not been investigated in skeletal muscle. In the rare premature ageing disease, Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), de novo point mutations in LMNA activate a cryptic splice site in exon 11, resulting in a 150 base deletion in LMNA mRNA and accumulation of a truncated protein isoform,...
