Energy metabolism, altered proteins, sirtuins and ageing: converging mechanisms?

abstract：:Obesity is associated with functional limitations in muscle performance and increased likelihood of developing a functional disability such as mobility, strength, postural and dynamic balance limitations. The consensus is that obese individuals, regardless of age, have a greater absolute maximum muscle strength compar...

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has been successfully used to treat the symptoms of menopause because estrogen has strong suppressive effects on climacteric complaints. As the hypothalamo-p...
