The importance of serial sarcomere addition for muscle function and the impact of aging | Journal of Applied Physiology | American Physiological Society
During natural aging, skeletal muscle experiences impairments in mechanical performance due, in part, to changes in muscle architecture and size, notably with a loss of muscle cross-sectional area (CS...

Changes in serial sarcomere number of five hindlimb muscles across adult aging in rats
Abstract. Introduction: The age-associated loss of muscle mass is partly accounted for by a reduction in muscle fascicle length (FL). Studies on rodents have confirmed this reduced FL is driven by a l...

Submaximal eccentric resistance training increases serial sarcomere number and improves dynamic muscle performance in old rats
The age-related loss of muscle mass is partly accounted for by the loss of sarcomeres in series, contributing to declines in muscle mechanical performance. Resistance training biased to eccentric con....

Age-related blunting of serial sarcomerogenesis and mechanical adaptations following 4 wk of maximal eccentric resistance training | Journal of Applied Physiology | American Physiological Society
During aging, muscles undergo atrophy, which is partly accounted for by a loss of sarcomeres in series. Serial sarcomere number (SSN) is associated with aspects of muscle mechanical function including...

Age-related differences in the loss and recovery of serial sarcomere number following disuse atrophy in rats - Skeletal Muscle
Background Older adults exhibit a slower recovery of muscle mass following disuse atrophy than young adults. At a smaller scale, muscle fibre cross-sectional area (i.e., sarcomeres in parallel) exhibi...

Performance fatigability on a constant-load dynamic task is greater in females with moderate-severity Parkinson’s disease than healthy-aging controls
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with self-reported fatigue. While fatigue is a disabling symptom, performance fati…
