Abstract Age-related muscle wasting, sarcopenia is an extensive loss of mass and strength with age a major cause disability accidents in the elderly. Mechanisms purported to be involved ageing are numerous but poorly understood, necessitating deeper study. Hence, we employed high-throughput RNA sequencing survey global changes protein-coding gene expression occurring skeletal age.

RNA-seq data were subjected Gene Ontology, pathway, co-expression, interaction network analyses. This revealed functional pathways most activated by CR, as well key “hub” proteins their activation. 442 genes upregulated 377 downregulated aged muscle, compared young muscle.

Abstract Adipose tissues are dynamic that play crucial physiological roles in maintaining health and homeostasis. Although white adipose tissue brown currently considered key endocrine organs, they differ functionally morphologically. The existence of the beige or brite adipocytes, cells displaying intermediary characteristics between illustrates plastic nature tissue. These generated through browning, a process associated with augmented non-shivering thermogenesis metabolic capacity.

Abstract Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 (PGC-1) family (PGC-1s), consisting of three members encompassing PGC-1α, PGC-1β, and PGC-1-related coactivator (PRC), was discovered more than a quarter-century ago. PGC-1s are essential coordinators many vital cellular events, including mitochondrial functions, oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis, inflammation. Accumulating evidence has shown that implicated in diseases, such as cancers, cardiac diseases cardiovascular neurological disorders, kidney motor system metabolic disorders. Examining the upstream modulators co-activated partners identifying critical biological events modulated by downstream effectors contribute to presentation elaborate network PGC-1s. Furthermore, discussing correlation between well summarizing therapy targeting helps make individualized precise intervention methods. In this review, we summarize basic knowledge regarding molecular regulatory network, discuss physio-pathological roles human review application PGC-1s, diagnostic prognostic value several therapies pre-clinical studies, suggest directions for future investigations. This presents immense potential treatment hopefully facilitates promotion new therapeutic targets.

These determinants comprise genetic susceptibility as well various behavioral, environmental, and dietary factors, all have been shown influence specific pathways regulating aging extension life, makes longevity a multidimensional phenomenon. Although "miraculous elixir" "nutrition pill" are plausible, researchers agree on notion that nutritional major impact risk non-communicable mortality.

The natural polyamine spermidine has been similarly linked to autophagy enhancement, geroprotection reduced incidence cardiovascular neurodegenerative diseases across species borders. Here, we asked whether cellular physiological consequences caloric depend on metabolism. We report that levels increased upon distinct regimens or in yeast, flies, mice volunteers. Genetic pharmacological blockade endogenous synthesis fasting-induced nematodes cells. Furthermore, perturbing pathway vivo abrogated lifespan- healthspan-extending effects, as well cardioprotective anti-arthritic fasting. Mechanistically, mediated these effects via induction hypusination translation regulator eIF5A. In summary, polyamine–hypusination axis emerges a phylogenetically conserved metabolic control hub for fasting-mediated enhancement longevity.

Using Delphi methodology, an international, multidisciplinary panel of researchers clinicians standardized definitions various approaches in humans. Five online surveys a live conference were conducted with 38 experts, 25 whom completed all 5 surveys. Consensus was achieved the following terms: "fasting" (voluntary abstinence from some or foods beverages), "modified fasting" (restriction energy intake to max. 25% needs), "fluid-only fasting," "alternate-day "short-term (lasting 2-3 days), "prolonged (≥4 consecutive "religious fasting." "Intermittent (repetitive periods lasting ≤48 h), "time-restricted eating," "fasting-mimicking diet" discussed most.
