Sarcopenia, Cachexia and Aging: Diagnosis, Mechanisms and Therapeutic Options - A Mini-Review
Open accessAbstract
By the year 2050, individuals over the age of 65 years will comprise 20% of the US population. Loss of muscle mass and strength is common in this age group and it is associated with increased dependence, frailty and mortality. Sarcopenia, defined as the loss of muscle mass and function associated with aging, and cachexia, defined as weight loss due to an underlying illness, are muscle wasting disorders of particular relevance in the aging population, but they go largely unrecognized. In this review we highlight the common pathophysiological mechanisms underlying muscle loss in sarcopenia and cachexia, the factors unique to each condition and means of diagnosing and differentiating them clinically. Therapeutic options including exercise, nutritional therapy, androgens and growth hormone as well as their practical limitations are discussed. We also shed light on newer agents being developed as potential therapeutic options for wasting diseases.

In sarcopenia, the loss of muscle mass and strength leads to reductions in physical activity and mobility, inducing oxidative stress, exacerbating sarcopenia, and generating an endless circle.
“In sarcopenia, the loss of muscle mass and strength leads to reductions in physical activity and mobility, inducing Os, exacerbating sarcopenia, and generating an endless circle [107, 108, 110].”

PI-3K/Akt inhibits Fox-O, while mTOR decreases caspase activity; PI-3K/Akt/mTOR activity declines during aging, promoting the catabolic pathway.
“Moreover, in physiological conditions, PI-3K/Akt inhibits the forkhead box transcription factor O (Fox-O) (a potent inductor of the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS)), while mTOR decreases caspase activity. PI-3K/Akt/mTOR activity declines during aging, promoting the catabolic pathway.”

Physical inactivity, a characteristic of obesity and sarcopenia in aging, indirectly inhibits the mTOR pathway through Fox-O stimulation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
