The impact of obesity on skeletal muscle strength and structure through adolescence to old age.

abstract：:There is now a significant body of research that establishes the deceleration of mortality rates in late life and their ultimate leveling off on a late-life plateau. Natural selection has been offered as one mechanism responsible for these plateaus. The force of natural selection should also exert such effects on fema...

Aging is accompanied by the imbalance of the function of several cellular homeostatic mechanisms, which results, among others, in the accumulation of abnormal (i.e. oxidized, cross-linked, unfolded) proteins.
