    Abstract Muscle aging is a complex physiological process that leads to the progressive decline in muscle mass and function, contributing to debilitating conditions in the elderly such as sarcopenia. In recent years, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been increasingly recognized as major regulators of muscle aging and related cellular processes. Here, we comprehensively review the emerging role of ncRNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), in the regulation of muscle aging. We also discuss how targeting these ncRNAs can be explored for the development of novel interventions to combat age-related muscle decline. The insights provided in this review offer a promising avenue for future research and therapeutic strategies aimed at improving muscle health during aging.

    Abstract Washing soft fresh produce such as strawberries, baby leaves, and sliced onions with sanitizing agents is challenging due to their fragile texture. Thus, treatments like aerosolization using slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) and ultraviolet C light-emitting diode (UVC LED) irradiation may be good alternatives.

    Abstract Background: Video fluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) is considered as the gold standard diagnostic tool for evaluating dysphagia. However, it is time consuming and labor intensive for the clinician to manually search the recorded long video image frame by frame to identify the instantaneous swallowing abnormality in VFSS images. Therefore, this study aims to present a deep leaning-based approach using transfer learning with a convolutional neural network (CNN) that automatically annotates pharyngeal phase frames in untrimmed VFSS videos such that frames need not be searched manually. Methods: To determine whether the image frame in the VFSS video is in the pharyngeal phase, a single-frame baseline architecture based the deep CNN framework is used and a transfer learning technique with fine-tuning is applied. Results: Compared with all experimental CNN models, that fine-tuned with two blocks of the VGG-16 (VGG16-FT5) model achieved the highest performance in terms of recognizing the frame of pharyngeal phase, that is, the accuracy of 93.20 (±1.25)%, sensitivity of 84.57 (±5.19)%, specificity of 94.36 (±1.21)%, AUC of 0.8947 (±0.0269) and Kappa of 0.7093 (±0.0488). Conclusions: Using appropriate and fine-tuning techniques and explainable deep learning techniques such as grad CAM, this study shows that the proposed single-frame-baseline-architecture-based deep CNN framework can yield high performances in the full automation of VFSS video analysis.

    Abstract Muscle atrophy in postmenopausal women is caused by estrogen deficiency and a variety of inflammatory factors, including tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα). Paeoniflorin (PNF), a natural compound with anti-inflammatory properties, improves estradiol synthesis. Here, we demonstrate that PNF inhibits the progression of TNFα-induced skeletal muscle atrophy after menopause by restoring mitochondrial biosynthesis. Differentiated myoblasts damaged by TNFα were restored by PNF, as evident by the increase in the expression of myogenin (MyoG) and myosin heavy chain 3 (Myh3)-the markers of muscle differentiation. Moreover, diameter of atrophied myotubes was restored by PNF treatment. TNFα-repressed nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1) and mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) (a major regulator of mitochondrial biosynthesis) were restored by PNF, via regulation by estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), an upregulator of NRF1. This mechanism was confirmed in ovariectomized (OVX) mice with a ~40% reduction in the cross-sectional area of the anterior tibialis muscle. OVX mice administered PNF (100, 300 mg/kg/day) for 12 weeks recovered more than ~20%. Behavioral, rotarod, and inverted screen tests showed that PNF enhances reduced muscle function in OVX mice. ERα restored expression of mitofusin 1 (MFN1) and mitofusin 2 (MFN2) (mitochondrial fusion markers) and dynamin-related protein (DRP1) and fission 1 (FIS1) (mitochondrial fission markers). Therefore, PNF can prevent muscle atrophy in postmenopausal women by inhibiting dysfunctional mitochondrial biogenesis.

    Abstract Exercise and caloric restriction (CR) significantly increase longevity across a range of species and delay aging-related losses in organ function. Although both interventions enhance skeletal muscle function, the molecular mechanisms underlying these associations are unknown. We sought to identify genes regulated by CR and exercise in muscle, and investigate their relationship with muscle function. To do this, expression profiles of Gene Expression Omnibus datasets obtained from the muscle tissue of calorie-restricted male primates and young men post-exercise were analyzed. There were seven transcripts (

    Abstract The combined use of ultraviolet-C light-emitting diodes (UV–C LED) irradiation and antimicrobial packaging film was used to secure the safety of fresh-cut vegetables. The antimicrobial packaging film was prepared by adding grapefruit seed extract (GSE) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO) to a blend film of poly(lactide) (PLA) and poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT). The GSE and ZnO added film (PLA/PBAT/GSE/ZnO film) showed moderate antioxidant activity of about 36.3% and 21.9% in the ABTS and DPPH methods, respectively, and exhibited strong antibacterial activity against Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and Staphylococcus aureus. The UV-C LED treatment reduced EHEC by 0.47, 0.55, and 0.61 Log CFU/g and S. aureus by 0.46, 0.39, and 0.33 Log CFU/g of fresh-cut onion, cabbage, and carrot, respectively. The combined UV-C LED irradiation and antimicrobial packaging showed a significant synergistic effect in reducing the bacteria during storage. After 7 days of storage at 10 °C, it showed 2.02, 2.82, and 2.06 log CFU/g lower E. coli, and 1.59, 1.77, and 1.47 log CFU/g lower S. aureus in onion, cabbage, and carrot, respectively, than the control group. The combined use of UV-C LED and antimicrobial packaging has a high potential to extend the shelf life of fresh-cut vegetables without heat treatment or the addition of chemical preservatives.
