Coupling between skeletal muscle fiber size and capillarization is maintained during healthy aging

BACKGROUND: As muscle capillarization is related to the oxidative capacity of the muscle and the size of muscle fibres, capillary rarefaction may contribute to sarcopenia and functional impairment in older adults. Therefore, it is important to assess how ageing affects muscle capillarization and the...
