Abstract Age-related muscle weakness and loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia) is a universal problem in the elderly. Our previous studies indicate that alpha motor neurons (α-MNs) play a critical role in this process. The goal of the current study is to uncover changes in the aging spinal cord that contribute to loss of innervation and the downstream degenerative processes that occur in skeletal muscle. The number of α-MNs is decreased in the spinal cord of wildtype mice during aging,...

Η παχυσαρκία αποτελεί έναν από τους κορυφαίους παράγοντες που συμβάλλουν στην ανάπτυξη καρκίνου παγκοσμίως. Επιδημιολογικές μελέτες που έχουν ασχοληθεί με τις εκφάνσεις της παχυσαρκίας σε πληθυσμιακά δείγματα, έχουν αποδείξει πως η διατροφή επηρεάζει τις πιθανότητες εμφάνισης καρκίνου. Ωστόσο, οι διατροφικές συνήθειες δεν αυξάνουν απλώς τις πιθανότητες εμφάνισης καρκίνου, αλλά επηρεάζουν και τον βαθμό ανταπόκρισης στην αντικαρκινική θεραπεία, και σίγουρα όχι θετικά.
