Age-related changes of skeletal muscles: physiology, pathology and regeneration

 Age-related changes of skeletal muscles: physiology, pathology and regeneration

 This review provides a short presentation of the aging-related changes of human skeletal muscles. The aging process is associated with the loss of skeletal muscle mass (sarcopenia) and strength. This results from fibre atrophy and apoptosis, decreased regeneration capacity, mitochondrial dysfunctio...
