Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative capacity and ageing in human muscle
TL;DR: It was shown that elderly subjects had nearly 50 % lower oxidative capacity per volume of muscle than adult subjects, and the cellular basis of this drop was a reduction in mitochondrial content, as well as a lower oxidativecapacity of the mitochondria with age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical stimuli regulate rapamycin-sensitive signalling by a phosphoinositide 3-kinase-, protein kinase B- and growth factor-independent mechanism.
Troy A. Hornberger,Rudy Stuppard,Kevin E. Conley,Mark J. Fedele,Marta L. Fiorotto,Eva R. Chin,Karyn A. Esser +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that mechanical stimuli can activate the mTOR pathway independent of PI3K/Akt1 and locally acting growth factors, and thus mechanical stimuli and growth factors provide distinct inputs through which mTOR co-ordinates an increase in the translational efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Separate measures of ATP utilization and recovery in human skeletal muscle.
TL;DR: This experimental approach defines a non‐invasive and quantitative measure of human muscle ATPase rate and ATP synthetase rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skeletal muscle NAMPT is induced by exercise in humans

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exercise increases skeletal muscle NAMPT expression and that NAM PT correlates with mitochondrial content.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decline in isokinetic force with age: muscle cross-sectional area and specific force.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the peak force of isokinetic knee extension in 57 males and females aged 23-80 years, and used magnetic resonance imaging to determine the contractile area of the quadriceps muscle.
