Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM), a significant chronic complication of diabetes, manifests as myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis, and other pathological alterations that substantially impact cardiac function and elevate the risk of cardiovascular diseases and patient mortality. Myocardial energy metabolism disturbances in DbCM, encompassing glucose, fatty acid, ketone body and lactate metabolism, are crucial factors that contribute to the progression of DbCM. In recent years, novel protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) such as lactylation, β-hydroxybutyrylation, and succinylation have been demonstrated to be intimately associated with the myocardial energy metabolism process, and in conjunction with acetylation, they participate in the regulation of protein activity and gene expression activity in cardiomyocytes.

Photobiomodulation and aquatic training reduce TNF-α expression and enhance muscle fiber area in Wistar rats with compensatory hypertrophy.

Postgraduate Program in Rehabilitation Sciences, Universidade Nove de Julho (UNINOVE), 235/249 Vergueiro Street, Sao Paulo, SP, 01525000, Brazil.

This study aims to assess the effects of aquatic training (AT) and its combination with photobiomodulation (PBM) on cytokine synthesis and plantar muscle morphology during compensatory hypertrophy (H) in Wistar rats. H was induced by bilateral ablation of synergistic muscles, and PBM using a laser (780 nm). AT involved 60 min sessions, 5 times/week, for 7 and 14 days.

Pathological cardiac remodeling is a maladaptive response that leads to changes in the size, structure, and function of the heart. These changes occur due to an acute or chronic stress on the heart and involve a complex interplay of hemodynamic, neurohormonal and molecular factors. As a critical regulator of cell growth, protein synthesis and autophagy mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is an important mediator of pathological cardiac remodeling.

The main aim of the current study was to compare the effects of two strength training modalities (hypertrophy vs. contrast training) on bone health parameters, physical performance and quality of life in a group of subjects aged 60 and above with low skeletal muscle mass index (SMI). 45 older adults voluntarily participated in this study, but only 41 (22 women and 19 men) completed it.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is associated with morphological and functional impairment of the heart primarily due to lipid toxicity caused by increased fatty acid metabolism. Extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) have been implicated in the metabolism of fatty acids in the liver and skeletal muscles. However, their role in the heart in diabetes remains unclear.
