[PMID: 38971570 DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2024.111289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2024] [Revised: 06/27/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/08/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal muscle ischaemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a prevalent condition encountered in clinical practice, characterised by muscular dystrophy. Owing to limited treatment options and poor prognosis, it can lead to movement impairments, tissue damage, and disability. This study aimed to determine and verify the influence of transient receptor potential canonical 6 (TRPC6) on skeletal muscle IRI, and to explore the role of TRPC6 in the occurrence of skeletal muscle IRI and the signal transduction pathways activated by TRPC6 to provide novel insights for the treatment and intervention of skeletal muscle IRI. METHODS In vivo ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) and in vitro hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) models were established, and data were comprehensively analysed at histopathological, cellular, and molecular levels, along with the evaluation of the exercise capacity in mice. RESULTS By comparing TRPC6 knockout mice with wild-type mice, we found that TRPC6 knockout of TRPC6 could reduced skeletal muscle injury after I/R or H/R, of skeletal muscle, so as therebyto restoringe some exercise capacity inof mice. TRPC6 knockdown can reduced Ca2+ overload in cells, therebyo reducinge apoptosis. In additionAdditionally, we also found that TRPC6 functionsis not only a key ion channel involved in skeletal muscle I/R injury, but also can affects Ca2+ levels and then phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) signalling pathway. by knocking downTherefore, knockdown of TRPC6, so as to alleviated the injury inducedcaused by skeletal muscle I/R or and H/R. CONCLUSIONS These findingsdata indicate that the presence of TRPC6 exacerbatescan aggravate the injury of skeletal muscle injury after I/Rischemia/reperfusion, leading towhich not only causes Ca2+ overload and apoptosis., Additionally, it impairsbut also reduces the self- repair ability of cells by inhibiting the expression of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signalling pathway. ETo exploringe the function and role of TRPC6 in skeletal muscle maycan presentprovide a novelew approachidea for the treatment of skeletal muscle ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the fifth leading cause of death in older adults, and treatment options are severely lacking. Recent findings demonstrate a strong relationship between skeletal muscle and cognitive function, with evidence supporting that muscle quality and cognitive function are positively correlated in older adults. Conversely, decreased muscle function is associated with a threefold increased risk of cognitive decline. Based on these observations, the purpose of this study was to investigate the negative effects of muscle disuse [via a model of hindlimb immobilization (HLI)] on hippocampal insulin sensitivity and mitochondrial function and identify the potential mechanisms involved. HLI for 10 days in 4-mo-old female Wistar rats resulted in the following novel findings: 1) hippocampal insulin resistance and deficits in whole body glucose homeostasis, 2) dramatically increased mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the hippocampus, 3) elevated markers for amyloidogenic cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and tau protein in the hippocampus, 4) and reduced brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression. These findings were associated with global changes in iron homeostasis, with muscle disuse producing muscle iron accumulation in association with decreased serum and whole brain iron levels. We report the novel finding that muscle disuse alters brain iron homeostasis and reveal a strong negative correlation between muscle and brain iron content. Overall, HLI-induced muscle disuse has robust negative effects on hippocampal insulin sensitivity and ROS production in association with altered brain iron homeostasis. This work provides potential novel mechanisms that may help explain how loss of muscle function contributes to cognitive decline and AD risk.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Muscle disuse via hindlimb immobilization increased oxidative stress and insulin resistance in the hippocampus. These findings were in association with muscle iron overload in connection with iron dysregulation in the brain. Overall, our work identifies muscle disuse as a contributor to hippocampal dysfunction, potentially through an iron-based muscle-brain axis, highlighting iron dysregulation as a potential novel mechanism in the relationship between muscle health, cognitive function, and Alzheimer's disease risk.

Abstract
Age-related morbidity has become an increasingly significant issue worldwide. Sarcopenia, the decline in skeletal muscle mass and strength with age, has been reported to be a risk factor for cognitive impairment. Our previous study revealed that skeletal muscle atrophy shifts the onset of memory dysfunction earlier in young Alzheimer's disease mice and found that hemopexin is a myokine responsible for memory loss. This study aimed to elucidate the occurrence of memory impairment due to skeletal muscle atrophy in non-genetically engineered healthy young mice and the involvement of hemopexin. Closed-colony ddY mice at 12-13 weeks of age were used. Both hind limbs were immobilized by cast attachment for 14 d. Casting for 2 weeks induced a loss of skeletal muscle weight. The memory function of the mice was evaluated using a novel object recognition test. The cast-attached mice exhibited memory impairment. Hemopexin levels in the conditioned medium of the skeletal muscle, plasma, and hippocampus were increased in cast-attached mice. Continuous intracerebroventricular hemopexin infusion induced memory deficits in non-cast mice. To investigate whether hemopexin is the main causative factor of cognitive impairment, cast-attached mice were intracerebroventricularly infused with an anti-hemopexin antibody. Cast-induced memory impairment was reversed by the infusion of an anti-hemopexin antibody. These findings provide new evidence that skeletal muscle atrophy causes memory impairment in healthy young mice through the action of hemopexin in the brain.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, leading to sustained cognitive decline. An increasing number of studies suggest that exercise is an effective strategy to promote the improvement of cognition in AD. Mechanisms of the benefits of exercise intervention on cognitive function may include modulation of vascular factors by affecting cardiovascular risk factors, regulating cardiorespiratory health, and enhancing cerebral blood flow. Exercise also promotes neurogenesis by stimulating neurotrophic factors, affecting neuroplasticity in the brain. Additionally, regular exercise improves the neuropathological characteristics of AD by improving mitochondrial function, and the brain redox status. More and more attention has been paid to the effect of Aβ and tau pathology as well as sleep disorders on cognitive function in persons diagnosed with AD. Besides, there are various forms of exercise intervention in cognitive improvement in patients with AD, including aerobic exercise, resistance exercise, and multi-component exercise. Consequently, the purpose of this review is to summarize the findings of the mechanisms of exercise intervention on cognitive function in patients with AD, and also discuss the application of different exercise interventions in cognitive impairment in AD to provide a theoretical basis and reference for the selection of exercise intervention in cognitive rehabilitation in AD.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is a pathology characterized by the progressive loss of neuronal connections, which leads to gray matter atrophy in the brain. Alzheimer's disease is the most prevalent type of dementia and has been classified into two types, early onset, which has been associated with genetic factors, and late onset, which has been associated with environmental factors. One of the greatest challenges regarding Alzheimer's disease is the high economic cost involved, which is why the number of studies aimed at prevention and treatment have increased. One possible approach is the use of resistance exercise training, given that it has been shown to have neuroprotective effects associated with Alzheimer's disease, such as increasing cortical and hippocampal volume, improving neuroplasticity, and promoting cognitive function throughout the life cycle. However, how resistance exercise training specifically prevents or ameliorates Alzheimer's disease has not been fully characterized. Therefore, the aim of this review was to identify the molecular basis by which resistance exercise training could prevent or treat Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether muscle quality is related to cognitive function in older adults living in the community. METHODS The participants were 40 community-dwelling older adults without a diagnosis of dementia (mean age, 78.85 ± 6.40 years; 31 women). The dependent variable was the score on the mild cognitive impairment (MCI) index of the Japanese version of the Neurobehavioral Cognitive Status Examination Five (range: 0-6; higher scores indicate MCI or possible dementia). RESULTS Multiple regression with Bayesian statistics was performed for analysis of muscle quality, as indicated by echo intensity (EI), with skeletal muscle mass index, gait speed, physical activity level, age, and sex as covariates. EI was significantly associated with the MCI index (expected a posterior = 0.04 [95% Bayesian confidence interval: 0.01, 0.07], t = 2.47, β = 0.41, p = 0.019). CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that EI may be related to the cognitive function of older adults living in the community. Future studies should examine whether focusing on EI can help prevent cognitive decline among older adults..

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Sarcopenia Index (SI) has the potential as a biomarker for sarcopenia, which is characterized by muscle loss. There is a clear association between sarcopenia and cognitive impairment. However, the relationship between SI and cognitive impairment is yet to be fully understood. METHODS We employed data extracted from the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning the years 1999 to 2002. Our study encompassed individuals aged 65 to 80 who possessed accessible information regarding both SI and cognitive evaluations with a GFR ≥ 90. Cognitive function was assessed using the digit symbol substitution test (DSST). SI was calculated by serum creatinine (mg/dL)/cystatin C (mg/L)*100. Employing multivariate modeling, we estimated the connection between SI and cognitive performance. Furthermore, to enhance the reliability of our data analysis, we categorized SI using tertiles and subsequently calculated the P-value for trend. RESULTS After adjustment for potential confounders, we found SI was significantly and positively correlated with cognitive function scores both in older female in the American population [β = 0.160, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.050 to 0.271, P = 0.00461]. Similarly, when the total cognitive function score was treated as a categorical variable according to tertiles, higher SI was related to better total cognitive function scores in females [odds ratio (OR) = 3.968, 95 % CI 1.863 to 6.073, P = 0.00025] following adjustment for confounders. CONCLUSIONS Higher SI was correlated with a lower prevalence of cognitive impairment among older adult women with normal kidney function.

Abstract
The external carotid artery (ECA) plays a major role in supplying blood to the head and neck. Although impeded blood flow in the ECA is expected to affect orofacial functions, few studies have shown how blood flow obstruction in the ECA contributes to impairment of these functions, including chewing and swallowing. This study was performed to investigate the effects of ECA ligation (ECAL) on immediate and long-term changes in masticatory and swallowing functions as well as the jaw-opening reflex evoked in the digastric muscle. The experiments were carried out using male Sprague-Dawley rats. In the acute experiment, the digastric reflex evoked by low-threshold electrical stimulation of the inferior alveolar nerve and the swallow reflex, identified by digastric and thyrohyoid electromyographic (EMG) bursts, were compared between before and 1 h after ECAL. The chronic experiment was conducted on freely moving rats. EMGs of the masseter, digastric, and thyrohyoid muscles were chronically recorded. The long-term effects of ECAL on behavior and muscle histology were compared between rats with an intact ECA and rats with ECAL. In the acute experiment, the peak amplitude of the digastric reflex on the ECAL side was significantly decreased 1 h after ECAL. In the chronic experiment, although most parameters of the masticatory and swallowing EMGs were not significantly different between the groups, the results suggest wide variation of the effect of ECAL on the muscles. Blood supply compensation from collaterals of the internal carotid artery may be permanent in some animals.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The inhibitory effect of unilateral external carotid artery ligation (ECAL) on the ipsilateral digastric reflex was small but evident. Most parameters of masticatory and swallowing muscle activity were not significantly different after ECAL. Wide variation was noted in the effect of ECAL on the ipsilateral muscle activity. Blood supply compensation from collaterals of the internal carotid artery may occur in response to the impaired blood flow.

Abstract
Transcription factors are essential for the development and regeneration of the nervous system. The current study investigated key regulatory transcription factors in rat spinal cord development via RNA sequencing. The hub gene Ets1 was highly expressed in the spinal cord during the embryonic period, and then its expression decreased during spinal cord development. Knockdown of Ets1 significantly increased the axonal growth of cultured spinal cord neurons. Luciferase reporter assays and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays indicated that Ets1 could directly bind to the Lcn2 promoter and positively regulate Lcn2 transcription. In conclusion, these findings provide the first direct evidence that Ets1 regulates axon growth by controlling Lcn2 expression, and Ets1 may be a novel therapeutic target for axon regeneration in the central nervous system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current drug treatments for dementia aren't effective. Studying gene-environment interactions can help develop personalized early intervention strategies for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, no studies have examined the relationship between screen-based sedentary activities and genetic susceptibility to AD risk, and further understanding of the causal relationship is also crucial. METHODS This study included 462,524 participants from the UK Biobank with a follow-up of 13.6 years. Participants' screen-based sedentary activities time was categorized into three groups based on recorded time: ≥ 4 h/day, 2-3 h/day, and ≤ 1 h/day. Cox proportional risk models were used to analyze the association between computer use/TV viewing groups and the risk of all-cause dementia, AD and vascular dementia (VD). Generalized linear model (GLM) were used to examine the relationship between screen-based sedentary activities and brain structure. Bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to validate the causal relationship between TV viewing and AD. RESULTS Compared to TV viewing ≤ 1 h/day, 1)TV viewing 2-3 h/day was correlated with a higher risk of all-cause dementia (HR = 1.09, 95% CI:1.01-1.18, P < 0.05), and TV viewing ≥ 4 h/day was associated with a higher risk of all-cause dementia (HR = 1.29, 95% CI: 1.19-1.40, P < 0.001), AD (HR = 1.25, 95% CI:1.1-1.42, P < 0.001), and VD (HR = 1.24, 95% CI: 1.04-1.49, P < 0.05); 2) TV viewing ≥ 4 h/day was correlated with a higher AD risk at intermediate (HR = 1.34, 95% CI: 1.03-1.75, P < 0.001) and high AD genetic risk score (AD-GRS) (HR = 2.18, 95% CI: 1.65-2.87, P < 0.001);3) TV viewing 2-3 h/day [β = (-94.8), 95% CI: (-37.9) -(-151.7), P < 0.01] and TV viewing ≥ 4 h/day [β = (-92.94), 95% CI: (-17.42) -(-168.46), P < 0.05] were correlated with a less hippocampus volume. In addition, a causal effect of TV viewing times was observed on AD analyzed using MR Egger (OR = 5.618, 95%CI:1.502-21.013, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS There was a causal effect between TV viewing time and AD analyzed using bidirectional MR, and more TV viewing time exposure was correlated with a higher AD risk. Therefore, it is recommended that people with intermediate and high AD-GRS should control their TV viewing time to be less than 4 h/ day or even less than 1 h/day.

Abstract
It is now understood that hemolysis and the subsequent release of heme into circulation play a critical role in driving the progression of various diseases. Hemopexin (HPX), a heme-binding protein with the highest affinity for heme in plasma, serves as an effective antagonist against heme toxicity resulting from severe acute or chronic hemolysis. In the present study, changes in HPX concentration were characterized at different stages of hemolytic diseases, underscoring its potential as a biomarker for assessing disease progression and prognosis. In many heme overload-driven conditions, such as sickle cell disease, transfusion-induced hemolysis, and sepsis, endogenous HPX levels are often insufficient to provide protection. Consequently, there is growing interest in developing HPX therapeutics to mitigate toxic heme exposure. Strategies include HPX supplementation when endogenous levels are depleted and enhancing HPX's functionality through modifications, offering a potent defense against heme toxicity. It is worth noting that HPX may also exert deleterious effects under certain circumstances. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of HPX's roles in the progression and prognosis of hematological diseases. It highlights HPX-based clinical therapies for different hematological disorders, discusses advancements in HPX production and modification technologies, and offers a theoretical basis for the clinical application of HPX.

Abstract
The development of cachexia in the setting of cancer or other chronic diseases is a significant detriment for patients. Cachexia is associated with a decreased ability to tolerate therapies, reduction in ambulation, reduced quality of life, and increased mortality. Cachexia appears intricately linked to the activation of the acute phase response and is a drain on metabolic resources. Work has begun to focus on the important inflammatory factors associated with the acute phase response and their role in the immune activation of cachexia. Furthermore, data supporting the liver, lung, skeletal muscle, and tumor as all playing a role in activation of the acute phase are emerging. Although the acute phase is increasingly being recognized as being involved in cachexia, work in understanding underlying mechanisms of cachexia associated with the acute phase response remains an active area of investigation and still lack a holistic understanding and a clear causal link. Studies to date are largely correlative in nature, nonetheless suggesting the possibility for a role for various acute phase reactants. Herein, we examine the current literature regarding the acute phase response proteins, the evidence these proteins play in the promotion and exacerbation of cachexia, and current evidence of a therapeutic potential for patients.

THE JOURNAL OF THE ACOUSTICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA 2023; 154:1427-1438. [PMID: 37672304 DOI: 10.1121/10.0020835] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/07/2023]
Abstract
Microgravity leads to muscle loss, usually accompanied by cognitive impairment. Muscle reduction was associated with the decline of cognitive ability. Our previous studies showed that low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) promoted muscle hypertrophy and prevented muscle atrophy. This study aims to verify whether LIPUS can improve cognitive impairment by preventing muscle atrophy in hindlimb unloaded mice. In this study, mice were randomly divided into normal control (NC), hindlimb unloading (HU), hindlimb unloading + LIPUS (HU+LIPUS) groups. The mice in the HU+LIPUS group received a 30 mW/cm2 LIPUS irradiation on gastrocnemius for 20 min/d. After 21 days, LIPUS significantly prevented the decrease in muscle mass and strength caused by tail suspension. The HU+LIPUS mice showed an enhanced desire to explore unfamiliar environments and their spatial learning and memory abilities, enabling them to quickly identify differences between different objects, as well as their social discrimination abilities. MSTN is a negative regulator of muscle growth and also plays a role in regulating cognition. LIPUS significantly inhibited MSTN expression in skeletal muscle and serum and its receptor ActRIIB expression in brain, upregulated AKT and BDNF expression in brain. Taken together, LIPUS may improve the cognitive dysfunction in hindlimb unloaded rats by inhibiting muscle atrophy through MSTN/AKT/BDNF pathway.

Abstract
Exercise reduces the risk of obesity-based, lifestyle-related diseases, such as metabolic abnormalities and cardiovascular diseases. The present review covers the health-promoting effects of exercise from the point of view of the physiologically active factor myokine, which is secreted by skeletal muscle, and focuses on the skeletal muscle as a new endocrine organ. Myokines have various effects, such as preventing metabolic syndrome by breaking down fat, preventing diabetes by improving glucose metabolism, and preventing progression of arteriosclerosis, dementia, and osteoporosis by enhancing bone metabolism. These substances also stabilize blood pressure, prevent cancer, increase immunity against infections, and prevent the development of age-associated diseases. Myokines are secreted by skeletal muscle into blood vessels, allowing them to exert systemic endocrine effects in organs throughout the body. Myokines are involved in bodily homeostasis and adaptation to the environment, and function by a mechanism similar to that of the skeletal muscle mass regulatory mechanism. Determining the relationships between multiple organs and their biological significance is important for exercise and health research. Progress in this field is expected to result in the identification of pathological mechanisms of action, development of new drugs, evaluation of the effectiveness of biomarkers over a wide range, and future improvement in healthcare.

Abstract
Sarcopenia is an age-related, involuntary loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in elderly adults. To date, no effective cures for sarcopenia and AD are available. Physical and cognitive impairments are two major causes of disability in the elderly population, which severely decrease their quality of life and increase their economic burden. Clinically, sarcopenia is strongly associated with AD. However, the underlying factors for this association remain unknown. Mechanistic studies on muscle-brain crosstalk during cognitive impairment might shed light on new insights and novel therapeutic approaches for combating cognitive decline and AD. In this review, we summarize the latest studies emphasizing the association between sarcopenia and cognitive impairment. The underlying mechanisms involved in muscle-brain crosstalk and the potential implications of such crosstalk are discussed. Finally, future directions for drug development to improve age-related cognitive impairment and AD-related cognitive dysfunction are also explored.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty and sarcopenia are prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) populations and could increase the risk for adverse health outcomes. Few studies assess the correlation between frailty, sarcopenia and CKD in non-dialysis patients. Therefore, this study aimed to determine frailty-associated factors in elderly CKD stage I-IV patients, expected to early identify and intervene in the frailty of elderly CKD patients. METHODS A total of 774 elderly CKD I-IV patients (>60 years of age) recruited from 29 clinical centers in China between March 2017 and September 2019 were included in this study. We established a Frailty Index (FI) model to evaluate frailty risk and verified the distributional property of FI in the study population. Sarcopenia was defined according to the criteria of the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was used to assess the associated factors for frailty. RESULTS Seven hundred seventy-four patients (median age 67 years, 66.0% males) were included in this analysis, with a median estimated glomerular filtration rate of 52.8 mL/min/1.73 m2 . The prevalence of sarcopenia was 30.6%. The FI exhibited a right-skewed distribution. The age-related slope of FI was 1.4% per year on a logarithmic scale (r2 = 0.706, 95% CI 0.9, 1.8, P < 0.001). The upper limit of FI was around 0.43. The FI was related to mortality (HR = 1.06, 95% CI 1.00, 1.12, P = 0.041). Multivariate multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that sarcopenia, advanced age, CKD stage II-IV, low level of serum albumin and increased waist-hip ratio were significantly associated with high FI status, while advanced age and CKD stage III-IV were significantly associated with for median FI status. Moreover, the results from the subgroup were consistent with the leading results. CONCLUSIONS Sarcopenia was independently associated with an increased risk for frailty in elderly CKD I-IV patients. Patients with sarcopenia, advanced age, high CKD stage, high waist-hip ratio and low serum albumin level should be assessed for frailty.

Abstract
Chronic pain caused by disease or injury affects more than 30% of the general population. The molecular and cellular mechanisms underpinning the development of chronic pain remain unclear, resulting in scant effective treatments. Here, we combined electrophysiological recording, in vivo two-photon (2P) calcium imaging, fiber photometry, Western blotting, and chemogenetic methods to define a role for the secreted pro-inflammatory factor, Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), in chronic pain development in mice with spared nerve injury (SNI). We found that LCN2 expression was upregulated in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) at 14 days after SNI, resulting in hyperactivity of ACC glutamatergic neurons (ACCGlu) and pain sensitization. By contrast, suppressing LCN2 protein levels in the ACC with viral constructs or exogenous application of neutralizing antibodies leads to significant attenuation of chronic pain by preventing ACCGlu neuronal hyperactivity in SNI 2W mice. In addition, administering purified recombinant LCN2 protein in the ACC could induce pain sensitization by inducing ACCGlu neuronal hyperactivity in naïve mice. This study provides a mechanism by which LCN2-mediated hyperactivity of ACCGlu neurons contributes to pain sensitization, and reveals a new potential target for treating chronic pain.

Abstract
IntroductionThis study examined whether the association between sarcopenia severity and cognitive function differed according to sex and age in community-dwelling older adults in Japan.MethodsThis is a cross-sectional study of older adults (age ≥ 65 years) consisting of five regional cohorts integrated as the Integrated Research Initiative for Living Well with Dementia (IRIDE) Cohort Study. Sarcopenia severity was determined based on the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019, which assessed grip strength, walking speed, and skeletal muscle mass index. Poor cognitive function was defined as a Mini-Mental State Examination score of ≤ 23. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for poor cognitive function were calculated by sex and age group (65–74 and ≥75 years) using binomial logistic regression models, which were adjusted for age, educational attainment, history of non-communicable diseases, smoking and drinking habits, living alone, frequency of going outdoors, exercise habits, and depressive symptom.ResultsOf the 8,180 participants, 6,426 (1,157 men aged 65–74 and 1,063 men aged 75 or older; 2,281 women aged 65–74 and 1,925 women aged 75 or older) were analyzed. The prevalence ratio of sarcopenia and severe sarcopenia were 309 (13.9%) and 92 (4.1%) among men and 559 (13.3%) and 166 (3.7%) among women, respectively. A total of 127 (5.8%) men and 161 (3.9%) women had a poor cognitive function. Setting non-sarcopenia as a reference, the adjusted ORs (95% CI) of poor cognitive function were 2.20 (1.54, 3.15) for sarcopenia and 3.56 (2.20, 5.71) for severe sarcopenia. A similar trend was observed in analyses stratified by sex and age, with linear associations (P for trend <0.05) in both categories. Furthermore, there was a significant interaction (P < 0.05) between sex and sarcopenia severity, indicating a stronger linear association of sarcopenia severity with poor cognitive function in women compared with men.Discussion and conclusionSarcopenia severity was linearly associated with poor cognitive function in adults aged ≥ 65 years, with a stronger association in women compared with men.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia affecting approximately 6.5 million people in the United States alone. The development of AD progresses over a span of years to possibly decades before resulting in cognitive impairment and clinically diagnosed AD. The time leading up to a clinical diagnosis is known as the preclinical phase, a time in which recent literature has noted a more severe loss of body mass and more specifically lean muscle mass and strength prior to diagnosis. Mitochondria dysfunction in neurons is also closely associated with AD, and mitochondrial dysfunction has been seen to occur in skeletal muscle with mild cognitive impairment prior to AD manifestation. Evidence from animal models of AD suggests a close link among skeletal muscle mass, mitochondria function, and cognition. Exercise is a powerful stimulus for improving mitochondria function and muscle health, and its benefits to cognition have been suggested as a possible therapeutic strategy for AD. However, evidence for beneficial effects of exercise in AD-afflicted populations and animal models has produced conflicting results. In this mini-review, we discuss these findings and highlight potential avenues for further investigation that may lead to the implementation of exercise as a therapeutic intervention to delay or prevent the development of AD.

Resistance training restores skeletal muscle atrophy and satellite cell content in an animal model of Alzheimer's disease. Sci Rep 2023; 13:2535.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease, and numerous recent findings suggest that several pathologic signs, including loss of muscle strength and mass, are also detected in these patients. In the present study, we evaluated muscle cross-sectional area (CSA), myonuclear number, satellite cell (SC) content, and myosin heavy chain (MyHC) types in an animal model of AD and examined the possible role of resistance training in controlling skeletal muscle size in this disease. Fifty-eight male rats were randomly divided into four groups: healthy-control (H-C), healthy-exercise (H-Ex), Alzheimer-control (A-C), and Alzheimer-exercise (A-Ex). AD was induced by the single injection of 1-42 amyloid into the CA1 region of the hippocampus (1 μl/site). The rats in H-Ex and A-Ex groups performed a 5-week resistance training period (17 sessions). The results indicated that AD induces significant skeletal muscle atrophy and reduces the myonuclear number and SC content in gastrocnemius muscle in both whole muscle cross-sections and isolated myofibers. Interestingly, we did not find any significant differences in the different MyHC distributions of AD animals compared with controls, while resistance training significantly increased the CSA of MyHC IIb fibers in both AD and healthy animals. Altogether, these observations suggest that the skeletal muscle of AD animals are more prone to atrophy and loss of myonuclear number and satellite cell content, while resistance training successfully restores these impairments.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle atrophy is prevalent in a myriad of pathological conditions, such as diabetes, denervation, long-term immobility, malnutrition, sarcopenia, obesity, Alzheimer's disease, and cachexia. This is a critically important topic that has significance in the health of the current society, particularly older adults. The most damaging effect of muscle atrophy is the decreased quality of life from functional disability, increased risk of fractures, decreased basal metabolic rate, and reduced bone mineral density. Most skeletal muscle in humans contains slow oxidative, fast oxidative, and fast glycolytic muscle fiber types. Depending on the pathological condition, either oxidative or glycolytic muscle type may be affected to a greater extent. This review article discusses the prevalence of skeletal muscle atrophy and several mechanisms, with an emphasis on high-fat, high-sugar diet patterns, obesity, and diabetes, but including other conditions such as sarcopenia, Alzheimer's disease, cancer cachexia, and heart failure.
