Sarcopenia

Definition

Age related loss of muscle mass and function. This can cause increased disability, morbidity, institutionalisation and mortality.

Mechanism

There is a ‘normal’ decline in muscle mass from around 30-60 years old. This accelerates after 60 years old.

There is a change in mucle fibre morphology:

There is atrophy of type II fibres (decreased fibre circumference)
As we age, we lose numbers of both type I and type II fibres
There is also a reduced ability to repair muscle damage:

Satellite cells (cells adjoining muscle fibres that are activated on injury) begin to lose function and stop activating in response to injury
There are also neuromuscular grouping changes:

Fast twitch fibres (normally innervated by large motor neurons) become grouped with slow twitch fibres (smaller motor neurons). This causes problems in innervation and can cause atrophy of muscle.
Protein synthesis

Reduced rates of contractile protein synthesis and increased proteolysis.
Nutrition

Often inadequate intake despite reduced BMI- without exercise, muscle will be lost as an energy source.
Perfusion

Reduced blood flow, endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis and PAD
Biochemistry/Cellular level

Reduced calcium available for contraction (reduction in DHPR receptor coupling)
Increase in heat shock proteins
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Myostatin (statin use)- a negative regulator of pre- and postnatal myogenesis, inhibits satellite cell activation and muscle regeneration.
