Scientists discover a compound that could supercharge aging muscle repair

1 week ago 32

Skeletal muscle often begins to deteriorate relatively early in the aging process. Over time, this can cause loss of strength, increased scarring, fat buildup within muscle tissue, and a decline in fast twitch fibers, which support rapid and powerful movements.

Researchers led by Professor Ryuichi Tatsumi of Kyushu University's Faculty of Agriculture have identified a molecule that could protect and enhance an important signal involved in muscle repair. The re...
