Age and gender related neuromuscular changes in trunk flexion-extension
(BioMed Central, 2015)Background: The root mean square surface electromyographic activity of lumbar extensor muscles during dynamic trunk flexion and extension from a standing position and task specific spine ranges of motion objectively assess ... -
Age and gender related neuromuscular pattern during trunk flexion-extension in chronic low back pain patients
(BioMed Central, 2016)Background: The root mean square surface electromyographic activity of lumbar extensor muscles during dynamic trunk flexion and extension from standing has repeatedly been recommended to objectively assess muscle function ... -

Age-associated NF-κB signaling in myofibers alters the satellite cell niche and re-strains muscle stem cell function
(Impact Journals LLC, 2016)Skeletal muscle is a highly regenerative tissue, but muscle repair potential is increasingly compromised with advancing age. In this study, we demonstrate that increased NF-κB activity in aged muscle fibers contributes to ... -
Age-related transcriptional changes in gene expression in different organs of mice support the metabolic stability theory of aging
(Springer Netherlands, 2008)Individual differences in the rate of aging are determined by the efficiency with which an organism transforms resources into metabolic energy thus maintaining the homeostatic condition of its cells and tissues. This ... -
Aged-Related Neural Changes During Memory Conjunction Errors
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press, 2010)Human behavioral studies demonstrate that healthy aging is often accompanied by increases in memory distortions or errors. Here we used event-related functional MRI to examine the neural basis of age-related memory ... -
Ageing: Generations of longevity
(Nature Publishing Group, 2011)The lifespan of some organisms can be extended by mutations that alter how DNA is packaged in their cells. A study reveals that this effect can last for generations, even in descendants that are genetically normal. -
