Grant Activity:
Enhancing mitochondrial energetics to prevent age-associated muscle weakness
Purpose:
Sarcopenia is a recognized disease of ageing, describing the progressive decline in skeletal muscle mass and strength that occurs from midlife in humans. Recent research suggests that a decline in mitochondrial function, the energy producing cells in our body, precedes the development of sarcopenia. This project will test whether increasing mitochondrial energetics in skeletal muscle with the pharmacological compound BAM15 can prevent sarcopenia in mouse and human models of ageing.
