activins and Atrophy, Muscle

activins has been researched along with Atrophy, Muscle in 19 studies

Activins: Activins are produced in the pituitary, gonads, and other tissues. By acting locally, they stimulate pituitary FSH secretion and have diverse effects on cell differentiation and embryonic development. Activins are glycoproteins that are hetero- or homodimers of INHIBIN-BETA SUBUNITS.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Baicalin is a natural flavonoid that can reduce skeletal muscle atrophy in animal models of cancer cachexia by inhibiting NF-κB."3.83Baicalin supplementation reduces serum biomarkers of skeletal muscle wasting and may protect against lean body mass reduction in cancer patients: Results from a pilot open-label study. ( Bertona, M; Emanuele, E; Fiuza-Luces, C; Lucia, A; Morales, JS; Pareja-Galeano, H; Sanchis-Gomar, F, 2016)
"Cancer cachexia is characterized by a significant reduction in body weight resulting predominantly from loss of adipose tissue and skeletal muscle."2.48Cancer cachexia: mediators, signaling, and metabolic pathways. ( Fearon, KC; Glass, DJ; Guttridge, DC, 2012)
"Cachexia is frequent, deadly, and untreatable for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)."1.72Sex specificity of pancreatic cancer cachexia phenotypes, mechanisms, and treatment in mice and humans: role of Activin. ( Koniaris, LG; Liu, S; Liu, Y; Narasimhan, A; Shahda, S; Silverman, LM; Wan, J; Young, AR; Zhong, X; Zimmers, TA, 2022)
"Compared to the healthy controls, COPD patients had upregulated Activin A expression."1.51Elevated serum Activin A in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with skeletal muscle wasting. ( Chen, R; Ding, H; Fu, X; Gui, X; Ji, X; Zhou, G, 2019)
"Muscle wasting and cachexia have long been postulated to be key determinants of cancer-related death, but there has been no direct experimental evidence to substantiate this hypothesis."1.36Reversal of cancer cachexia and muscle wasting by ActRIIB antagonism leads to prolonged survival. ( Boone, T; Chen, Q; Goldberg, AL; Han, HQ; Jiao, Q; Kwak, KS; Lacey, DL; Lu, J; Rosenfeld, R; Simonet, WS; Song, Y; Wang, JL; Zhou, X, 2010)
