Age-related sarcopenia and its pathophysiological bases

Age-related loss of the skeletal muscle and its function is known as sarcopenia. Definition and diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia have been outlined as consensus statements from several study groups, including usual gait speed, grip strength, and skeletal muscle mass. Whereas underlying mechanisms...

description Age-related loss of the skeletal muscle and its function is known as sarcopenia. Definition and diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia have been outlined as consensus statements from several study groups, including usual gait speed, grip strength, and skeletal muscle mass. Whereas underlying mechanisms and pathophysiology of sarcopenia remains to be clarified, recent studies have suggested that chronic inflammatory status as well as lifestyle-related factors in older individuals might contribute to the process and progress of sarcopenia.
