PGC-1α and myokines in the aging muscle - a mini-review.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Many falls in older adults occur during walking and result in lateral falls. The ability to perform a recovery step after balance perturbation determines whether a fall will occur. AIM:To investigate age-related changes in first recovery step kinematics and kinematic adaptations over a wide range of later...
