Sarcopenia is a loss of muscle mass and function in the elderly that reduces mobility,
diminishes quality of life, and can lead to fall-related injuries, which require costly …

The branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are leucine, valine and isoleucine. A multi-million
dollar industry of nutritional supplements has grown around the concept that dietary …

Purpose Progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass with aging (sarcopenia) forms a global
health concern. It has been suggested that an impaired capacity to increase muscle protein …

Sarcopenia, the reduction of muscle mass and strength that occurs with aging, is widely
considered one of the major causes of disability in older persons. Surprisingly, criteria that …

Aging is characterized by loss of spinal motor neurons (MNs) due to apoptosis, reduced
insulin‐like growth factor I signaling, elevated amounts of circulating cytokines, and …

Sarcopenia reflects a progressive withdrawal of anabolism and an increased catabolism,
along with a reduced muscle regeneration capacity. Muscle force and power decline more …

Aging is associated with progressive loss of neuromuscular function that often leads to
progressive disability and loss of independence. The term sarcopenia is now commonly …

Muscle plays a central role in whole-body protein metabolism by serving as the principal
reservoir for amino acids to maintain protein synthesis in vital tissues and organs in the …

Feeding stimulates robust increases in muscle protein synthesis (MPS); however, ageing
may alter the anabolic response to protein ingestion and the subsequent aminoacidaemia …
