A 12‐Week Strength Training Improves Mitochondrial Respiration, H2O2 Emission and Skeletal Muscle Integrity in Women With Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1
Background Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is caused by expanded CTG repeats in the DMPK gene, causing the accumulation of toxic RNA that sequesters RNA-binding proteins. Clinically, DM1 is characte.....

When studying mitochondria, it is essential to consider the impact of physical activity. Some findings attributed to 'aging' might actually be the result of decades of physical inactivity. ⬇️

Impact of physical activity on physical function, mitochondrial energetics, ROS production, and Ca2+ handling across the adult lifespan in men
Cefis et al. show that mitochondrial respiration and ROS production are not affected during healthy muscle aging but identify altered mitochondrial calcium handling as a potential key driving mechanis...
