Abstract Sarcopenia is defined as a muscle‐wasting syndrome that occurs with accelerated aging, while cachexia severe wasting associated conditions such cancer and immunodeficiency disorders, which cannot be fully addressed through conventional nutritional supplementation. can considered component of cachexia, the bidirectional interplay between adipose tissue skeletal muscle potentially serving molecular mechanism for both conditions. However, underlying mechanisms differ. Recognizing distinctions these disorders essential advancing basic translational research in this area, enhancing diagnostic accuracy ultimately achieving effective therapeutic solutions affected patients. This review discusses microenvironment's changes contributing to conditions, recent approaches like lifestyle modifications, small molecules, interventions, emerging strategies gene editing, stem cell therapy, gut microbiome modulation. We also address challenges opportunities multimodal aiming provide insights into pathogenesis sarcopenia aiding innovative strategy development improved treatments.

Abstract Global population aging poses a tremendous burden on the health care system worldwide. Frailty is associated with decreased physical reserve and considered an important indicator of adverse events in older population. Therefore, there growing interest early diagnosis intervention frailty, but cellular mechanisms responsible for frailty are still not completely understood. Chronic inflammation related to function increased disease risk. Additionally, multiple human animal studies suggest that probably plays largest role contributing frailty. Some inflammatory markers have been proposed predict However, large gaps knowledge clinical application these frail patients. understanding biological processes identifying recognized reliable urgent pivotal tasks geriatricians. In present review, we broadly summarize may potential diagnostic therapeutic use, thereby translating them into people near future.

Background: There is growing evidence that an antioxidant diet a protective factor against frailty. However, few studies have examined the effect of comprehensive dietary antioxidants on frailty symptoms. The aim this study was to examine relationships between composite index (CDAI) and underlying mechanisms involved. Methods: Based National Health Nutrition Survey (NHANES) 2003– 2018, included 11,277 older persons aged ≥ 60 years. In study, defined as having total score > 0.21 49-item index. Six were selected for use in calculating CDAI. A weighted multiple logistic regression model with subgroup analysis restricted cubic splines (RCSs) used association CDAI To role oxidative stress, mediation analyses also conducted.

Biological aging, characterized by changes in metabolism and physicochemical properties of cells, has an impact on public health. Environment lifestyle, including factors like diet physical activity, seem to play a key role healthy aging. Several studies have shown that regular activity can enhance antioxidant defense mechanisms, the enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase. However, intense or prolonged exercise also lead increase reactive oxygen species (ROS) production temporarily, resulting oxidative stress. This phenomenon is referred “exercise-induced stress”. The relationship between stress aging complex depends various type, intensity, duration, frequency exercise, well individual differences capacity adaptation exercise. In this review, we analyzed what reported several authors regarding process hormesis tools for prevention treatment sarcopenia, aging-related disease.
