BACKGROUND Visceral adiposity is related to insulin resistance. Skeletal muscle plays a central role in insulin-mediated glucose disposal; however, little is known about the association between muscle mass and metabolic syndrome (MS). This study is to clarify the clinical role of skeletal muscle mass in development of MS. METHODS A total of 1,042 subjects were enrolled. Subjects with prior MS...
A human therapeutic that specifically modulates skeletal muscle growth would potentially provide a benefit for a variety of conditions including sarcopenia, cachexia, and muscular dystrophy. Myostatin, a member of the TGF-beta family of growth factors, is a known negative regulator of muscle mass, as mice lacking the myostatin gene have increased muscle mass. Thus, an inhibitor of myostatin may...
Skeletal muscle has the ability to adapt and remodel after functional, mechanical, and metabolic stresses by activation of different adaptation mechanisms that induce gene expression, biochemical changes, and structural remodeling. Skeletal muscle cells continuously generate reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), which can act as mediators in cellular signaling pathways that regulate the ...
the aim of this study was to investigate anthropometric and physiological characteristics in junior volleyball players for talent identification according to their volleyball playing positions. 15 junior national volleyball players (mean age 17.7±0.3 years) participated in this study. players were classified to five groups according to their playing positions: setters, liberoes, middle blockers...
The age-related changes in both skeletal mass and muscle mass were directly measured in normal black women ages 30-80 yr. The levels of total-body calcium (TBCa) were determined with the use of in vivo neutron activation. The muscle mass was measured by wholebody counting of 40K. In the same population, the bone mineral content of the radius was measured using a photon absorptiometric technique...
Background and Aims: Apoptosis plays important roles in the pathophysiology of Type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on gene expression of apoptotic markers in the skeletal muscle of diabetic rats. Methods: To implementation of this experimental research, 60 male Wistar rats weighing 220 ± 20 gr randomly were divided into 5 ...
Heart failure is often characterized by skeletal muscle atrophy. The mechanisms underlying muscle wasting, however, are not fully understood. We studied 30 Dahl salt-sensitive rats (10 male, 20 female) fed either a high-salt (HS; n = 15) or a low-salt (LS; n = 15) diet. This strain develops cardiac hypertrophy and failure when fed a HS diet. LS controls were matched to HS rats for gender and du...
Sarcopenia is characterized by a lower skeletal muscle quantity, higher fat accumulation in the muscle, lower muscle strength, and lower physical performance. The most commonly used, low cost and accessible methods to assess skeletal muscle mass include dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), anthropometry and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computeriz...
OBJECTIVE Leptin receptors are abundant in human skeletal muscle, but the role of leptin in muscle growth, development and aging is not well understood. Here we utilized a novel mouse model lacking all functional leptin receptor isoforms (POUND mouse, Lepr(db/lb)) to determine the role of leptin in skeletal muscle. METHODS AND FINDINGS Skeletal muscle mass and fiber diameters were examined in...
1. The maintenance of skeletal muscle mass is determined by a fine balance between protein synthesis and protein degradation. Skeletal mass is increased when there is a net gain in protein synthesis, which can occur following progressive exercise training. In contrast, skeletal muscle mass is lost when degradation occurs more rapidly than synthesis and is observed in numerous conditions, includ...
