Despite the wealth of epidemiological and experimental studies indicating the protective role
of regular physical activity/exercise training against the sequels of aging and cardiovascular …

Obesity can cause a decline in contractile function of skeletal muscle, thereby reducing
mobility and promoting obesity-associated health risks. We reviewed the literature to …

Aging is associated with sarcopenia. The loss of strength results in decreased muscle mass
and motor function. This process accelerates the progressive muscle deterioration observed …

Skeletal muscle shows an enormous plasticity to adapt to stimuli such as contractile activity
(endurance exercise, electrical stimulation, denervation), loading conditions (resistance …

Maintaining mobility is a critical element for the quality of life. Skeletal muscle, the primary
organ for locomotion, undergoes age‐associated deterioration in size, structure, and …

Sarcopenic obesity (SO) is a condition characterized by the occurrence of both sarcopenia
and obesity and imposes a heavy burden on the health of the elderly. Controversies and …

There is growing evidence to indicate that age-related declines in growth hormone (GH),
insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1, and androgen and estrogen production play a role in the …

The aim was to investigate the effects of resistance exercise combined with supplementation
of specific collagen peptides (SCP) on body composition and muscle strength in …

Senescent cells arise as a consequence of cellular damage and can have either a
detrimental or advantageous impact on tissues and organs depending on the specific cell …

Senescent cells accumulate in normal tissues with advancing age and arise by long‐term
culture of primary cells. Senescence develops following exposure to a range of stress …
