Abstract Background Exercise train (ET) stimulates muscle response in pathological conditions, including aging. The molecular mechanisms by which exercise improves impaired adiponectin/adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1)‐related actions associated with aging are poorly understood. Here we observed that a senescence‐accelerated mouse prone 10 (SAMP10) model, long‐term ET modulated muscle‐regenerative actions. Methods 25‐week‐old male SAMP10 mice were randomly assigned to the control and (45...

Chronic psychological stress is a risk factor for kidney disease, including dysfunction and hypertension. Lysosomal CatK (cathepsin K) participates in various human pathobiologies. We investigated the role of remodeling hypertension response to 5/6 nephrectomy injury mice with or without chronic stress.Male 7-week-old WT (wild type; CatK+/+) CatK-deficient (CatK-/-) that were not subjected underwent nephrectomy. At 8 weeks post-stress/surgery, was observed have accelerated injury-induced...

Abstract Exposure to chronic psychological stress (CPS) is an intractable risk factor for inflammatory and metabolic diseases. Lysosomal cysteinyl cathepsins play important role in human pathobiology. Given that cathepsin S (CTSS) upregulated the stressed vascular adipose tissues, we investigated whether CTSS participates stress-induced skeletal muscle mass loss dysfunction, with a special focus on protein imbalance apoptosis. Eight-week-old male wildtype (CTSS +/+ ) CTSS-knockout −/− mice...

Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) is one of the most potent mammalian serine proteases participated in pathogenesis subclinical atherosclerosis. Here we investigated whether plasma soluble form DPP4 associated with prevalence coronary artery disease (CAD) and without diabetes mellitus (DM). A cross-sectional study was conducted 496 aged 26-81 years (n = 362) 134) CAD. Plasma activity, high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density levels...

The mechanism by which angiogenesis declines with aging is not fully understood. Soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1) form (sFlt1) contributes to dysfunction in pathological conditions. However, the roles of sFlt1 ischemia-induced neovascularizationof aged animals have been investigated. To study aging-related change and its impact on neovascularization, a hindlimb ischemia model was applied young mice. Blood flow imaging assay revealed that blood recovery remained...

Abstract Cathepsin S (CTSS) is a widely expressed cysteinyl protease that has garnered attention because of its enzymatic and non‐enzymatic functions under inflammatory metabolic pathological conditions. Here, we examined whether CTSS participates in stress‐related skeletal muscle mass loss dysfunction, focusing on protein imbalance. Eight‐week‐old male wildtype (CTSS +/+ ) CTSS‐knockout −/− mice were randomly assigned to non‐stress variable‐stress groups for 2 weeks, then processed...
