Atrogin-1, a muscle-specific F-box protein highly expressed during muscle atrophy

TL;DR: Atrogin-1 is one of the few examples of an F-box protein or Ub-protein ligase (E3) expressed in a tissue-specific manner and appears to be a critical component in the enhanced proteolysis leading to muscle atrophy in diverse diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple types of skeletal muscle atrophy involve a common program of changes in gene expression

TL;DR: Different types of skeletal muscle atrophy share a common transcriptional program that is activated in many systemic diseases including diabetes, cancer, and renal failure, according to cDNA microarrays.
Journal ArticleDOI

Editorial: Adverse Effects of Cancer Chemotherapy: Anything New to Improve Tolerance and Reduce Sequelae?

TL;DR: RTJ receives salary support from the Peter Brojde Lung Cancer Centre and the Backler Foundation, Jewish General Hospital Foundation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid disuse and denervation atrophy involve transcriptional changes similar to those of muscle wasting during systemic diseases

TL;DR: The atrophy associated with systemic catabolic states and following disuse involves similar transcriptional adaptations; and disuse atrophy proceeds through multiple phases corresponding to rapidly atrophying and atrophied muscles that involve distinct transcriptional patterns.
