Gravity-dependent physical processes strongly affect the ability of elderly people to maintain
musculoskeletal health by reducing muscle atrophy and increasing bone mineral density …

The safety of space flight is challenged by a severe loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength,
and endurance that may compromise the health and performance of astronauts. The …

Sarcopenia describes an age-related decline in skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function
that ultimately impairs metabolism and leads to poor balance, frequent falling, limited …

Microgravity exposure as well as chronic disuse are two main causes of skeletal muscle
atrophy in animals and humans. The antigravity calf soleus is a reference postural muscle to …

Astronauts experience dramatic loss of muscle mass, decreased strength, and insulin
resistance, despite performing daily intense physical exercise that would lead to muscle …

Aging is associated with a progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function termed
sarcopenia. Various metabolic alterations that occur with aging also increase the risk of …

Background Due to the interaction between skeletal muscle ageing and lifestyle factors, it is
often challenging to attribute the decline in muscle mass and quality to either changes in …

Although the microgravity (μ-g) environment that astronauts encounter during spaceflight
can cause severe acute bone loss, the molecular mechanism of this bone loss remains …

A proteomic analysis was performed comparing normal rat soleus muscle to soleus muscle
that had undergone either 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 7, 10 and 14 days of hindlimb suspension‐induced …

Sarcopenia corresponds to the loss of muscle mass occurring during aging, and is
associated with a loss of muscle functionality. Proteomic links the muscle functional changes …
