Adult skeletal muscle in mammals is a stable tissue under normal circumstances but has
remarkable ability to repair after injury. Skeletal muscle regeneration is a highly orchestrated …

Cachexia is the loss of lean body mass (LBM) that affects a large proportion of dogs and cats
with congestive heart failure (CHF), chronic kidney disease (CKD), cancer, and a variety of …

Introduction Oral curcumin decreases inflammatory cytokines and increases muscle
regeneration in mice. Purpose To determine effects of curcumin on muscle damage …

Muscle stem (satellite) cells are relatively resistant to cell‐autonomous aging. Instead, their
endogenous signaling profile and regenerative capacity is strongly influenced by the aged P …

Background The onset of cachexia is a frequent feature in cancer patients. Prominent
characteristic of this syndrome is the loss of body and muscle weight, this latter being mainly …

Skeletal muscle, a tissue endowed with remarkable endogenous regeneration potential, is
still under focused experimental investigation mainly due to treatment potential for muscle …

There is increasing evidence suggesting that estrogens augment skeletal muscle
regeneration processes after injury. To study the contribution of estrogen receptors α and β …

Background The majority of cancer patients experience dramatic weight loss, due to
cachexia and consisting of skeletal muscle and fat tissue wasting. Cachexia is a negative …

Background and purpose The extra-skeletal functions of vitamin D-including its role in
inflammatory modulation-are now well recognized but have not yet been investigated in an …

M uscle aging is characterized by a decline in functional performance and restriction of
adaptability, due to progressive loss of muscle tissue coupled with a decrease in strength …
