Abstract: The concept of mitochondrial dysfunction in ageing muscle is highly controversial. In addition, emerging evidence suggests that reduced muscle oxidative capacity and efficiency underlie the aetiology of mobility loss in older adults. Here, we hypothesized… read more here.

Abstract: Skeletal muscle atrophy is a clinically important outcome of disuse because of injury, immobilization, or bed rest. Disuse atrophy is accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction, which likely contributes to activation of the muscle atrophy program. However,… read more here.
