Turning Back Time on Muscle Stem Cells to Prevent Frailty From Aging
Low muscle mass in the elderly -- known as sarcopenia -- leads to increased frailty and movement problems. Patients with sarcopenia are more likely to be hospitalized and develop other comorbidities, largely due to falls and fractures that tend to create health declines that quickly spiral out of control.
A new study demonstrates the effectiveness of treating aged mice with a naturally occurring lipid, Prostaglandin E2, which improved regeneration and strength of aged muscle. The research team also detailed how this therapy worked, showing that it counteracts molecular changes that occur with stem cell aging.
