HOUSTON – A newly identified gene, atrogin-1, is involved in muscle loss associated with cancer, diabetes, fasting and kidney disease as well as in the atrophy occurring with disuse, inactivity, and ...
A newly discovered molecular pathway gives hope for overcoming challenges in the treatment of cancer
Nearly half of all cancer patients suffer from excessive weight loss due to the loss of adipose and skeletal muscle tissues, or cachexia. This progressive illness not only impairs quality of life for ...

If you have dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD), you might develop geographic atrophy (GA). Here’s what happens and what to expect. It’s an age-related eye disease that leads to blurring in ...
Muscle atrophy is a prevalent condition in today's societies, but many of the roles that mitochondria play in the process remain unclear. In a recent study, researchers investigated how muscle atrophy ...
New findings shed light on the molecular triggers of rapid cardiac atrophy. Findings have potential implications for space travel. In many situations, heart muscle cells do not respond to external ...
As people age, muscles naturally lose mass and strength, a condition known as sarcopenia. The decline can make everyday activities harder and increases the risk of falls, disability, and early death.
With the intensification of global population aging, muscle atrophy, characterized by the loss of muscle mass and function, has become an important health issue affecting the elderly. Researchers have ...
