Skeletal Muscle Fiber Size and Gene Expression in the Oldest-Old With Differing Degrees of Mobility
The oldest-old, in the ninth and tenth decades of their life, represent a population characterized by neuromuscular impairment, which often implies a loss of mobility and independence. As recently documented by us and others, muscle atrophy and weakness are accompanied by an unexpected preservation...
