Net protein balance correlates with expression of autophagy, mitochondrial biogenesis, and fat metabolism‐related genes in skeletal muscle from older adults
Abstract The mechanisms leading to sarcopenia, the main cause for frailty in older adults, are still unclear. Autophagy and the ubiquitin‐proteasome system (UPS) may play a role in mediating muscle protein breakdown related to sarcopenia. In addition to loss of muscle mass, compromised muscle perfor...
