📣important perspective: while pre specified clinical endpoints are key for hypothesis validation, open clinical exploration for hypothesis generation in humans should also be encouraged, especially to understand molecular physiology 💪🏃‍♀️
We wrote this letter to address the overly rigid preregistration requirements imposed now by many journals on exploratory experimental physiology research - time to align guidelines with contemporary research methods! @proferikrichter @ISMCopenhagen physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.c…

It is that time again, time to vote for the 12th Annual Matt's Totally Biased (but less so) Top 10 Muscle Papers of the Year. Due to prohibitive shipping costs, this year’s winner will receive an e-gift card in lieu of a plaque. Voting will end Dec. 20. uab.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/fo…

New mechanism of muscle growth in length
1/ Ever wondered how lifting weights makes muscles grow? 💪Our latest study reveals that mTORC1 doesn’t always hold the key. Full breakdown preprint in this thread 👇biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Online now!✨RESEARCH: using multi-omics analysis of patient samples, Zuo et al link disrupted BCAA catabolism to sarcopenia. In mouse models, they demonstrate that enhancing BCAA catabolism protects against sarcopenia nature.com/articles/s43587-0… rdcu.be/d9SFw

Converging results on impaired mitochondrial calcium as new hallmark of #aging in neurons and skeletal muscle 🧠 💪 cell.com/cell-metabolism/ful…
New findings in mice have uncovered a crucial mechanism linking neuronal activity to mitochondrial function, researchers report in Science, revealing a potential pathway to combat age-related cognitive decline. 📄: scim.ag/3DjdseC #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/4gZZMEb

Top altmetrics score 2024: #8🏆✨ @Vinz_Sorrentino, @FeigeLab (@NUSMedicine, @EPFL) and co-authors identify trigonelline as a human metabolite that can be used for NAD synthesis and that improves #muscle function in #aging worms and mice 💪🐭 nature.com/articles/s42255-0…

A message to relay: Sarcopenia is not just any sort of muscle wasting, its the loss of muscle mass AND strength with old age (different from cachexia secondary to cancer/COPD/CKD/CHF or disuse atrophy during immobilization…)
Sarcopenia ≠ low muscle mass Main differences between causes, dysfunctions, and outcomes associated with sarcopenia and low muscle mass👇 #muscle #sarcopenia #Health link.springer.com/article/10…
