• Mitochondrial dysfunction causes Ca2+ overload and ECM degradation-mediated muscle damage in C. elegans 

  Sudevan, S; Takiura, M; Kubota, Y; et al. (Federation of American Society of Experimental Biology (FASEB), 4 June 2019)

  Mitochondrial dysfunction impairs muscle health and causes subsequent muscle wasting. This study explores the role of mitochondrial dysfunction as an intramuscular signal for the extracellular matrix (ECM)-based proteolysis ...

• Network analysis of human muscle adaptation to aging and contraction. 

  Willis, CRG; Ames, RM; Deane, CS; et al. (Impact Journals, 7 January 2020)

  Resistance exercise (RE) remains a primary approach for minimising aging muscle decline. Understanding muscle adaptation to individual contractile components of RE (eccentric, concentric) might optimise RE-based intervention ...

• Desaturation during exercise is not a sufficient mechanism for prediction of osteoporosis in non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis 

  Tomlinson, O; Vlachopoulos, D (BMC, 2020)

  Background: Recent research has proposed an association between desaturation during a six minute walking test (6MWT) and osteoporosis in an elderly group of individuals with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. A causative ...

• One size does not fit all - Application of accelerometer thresholds in chronic disease 

  Dibben, GO; Taylor, RS; Dalal, HM; et al. (Oxford University Press, 1 August 2019)

• A web-based intervention to promote physical activity in adolescents and young adults with cystic fibrosis: protocol for a randomized controlled trial. 

  Cox, NS; Eldridge, B; Rawlings, S; et al. (BMC, 19 December 2019)

  BACKGROUND: Regular participation in physical activity by people with cystic fibrosis (CF) promotes positive clinical and health outcomes including reduced rate of decline in lung function, fewer hospitalizations and greater ...
