Mechanistic Links Underlying the Impact of C-Reactive Protein on Muscle Mass in Elderly

Mechanistic Links Underlying the Impact of C-Reactive Protein on Muscle Mass in Elderly

Background/Aims: Mechanisms underlying the relationship between systemic inflammation and age-related decline in muscle mass are poorly defined. The purpose of this work was to investigate the relationship between the systemic inflammatory marker CRP and muscle mass in elderly and to identify mechan...
