What this means

This is a plan for a study that is still recruiting people, so no results are available yet. It does not tell us whether exercise changes muscles or blood markers in older adults.

Registry summary

This project aims to investigate the intricate interplay between skeletal muscle and adipose tissue during the aging process by integrating human studies. Utilizing interventional research and randomized trials combined with examining blood samples from elderly individuals engaged in exercise, we aim to investigate the effects of exercise on muscle health and explore the underlying mechanisms of muscle aging and related biomarkers. Interdisciplinary research allowed us to investigate the systemic impact of exercise on muscles. This approach allowed us to gain a better understanding of the interconnectedness of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue in the aging process and devise efficient strategies to reverse age-related changes. These findings hold promise for promoting a future society where long and healthy life is achievable for all.
