Mitochondrial death effectors: relevance to sarcopenia and disuse muscle atrophyEmanuele Marzetti
Department of Aging and Geriatrics, Institute on Aging, Division of Biology of Aging, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32610 0143, USA
Biochim Biophys Acta 1800:235-44. 2010..Furthermore, a translational effort is required to determine the role played by apoptosis in the pathogenesis of sarcopenia and disuse-induced muscle loss in human subjects...
Mitochondrial iron accumulation with age and functional consequencesArnold Y Seo
Department of Aging and Geriatrics, Division of Biology of Aging, Genomics and Biomarkers Core of the Institute on Aging, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611, USA
Aging Cell 7:706-16. 2008..Overall, our data suggest that age-dependent accumulation of mitochondrial iron may increase mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative damage,thereby enhancing the susceptibility to apoptosis...
Effects of short-term GH supplementation and treadmill exercise training on physical performance and skeletal muscle apoptosis in old ratsEmanuele Marzetti
Department of Aging and Geriatrics, Institute on Aging, Division of Biology of Aging, University of Florida, 1600 SW Archer Road, Gainesville, FL 32610, USA
Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 294:R558-67. 2008..In contrast, short-term administration of GH late in life does not provide any protection against functional decline or muscle aging and may even accelerate apoptosis in slow-twitch muscles, such as the soleus...
