      Skeletal muscle atrophy can occur due to degenerative processes originating within the skeletal muscle fibers, secondary to denervation (denervation atrophy), or spontaneously in aging rodents. It is a common reaction to any injury that results in the degradation and/or loss of myofiber organelles.

      Even though muscle mass and strength can be regained once astronauts have returned to Earth, maintaining muscle in space is a concern, especially for long-duration space missions. The only way to minimize muscle atrophy in space is through intensive exercise, particularly strength training exercises, combined with an adequate diet.

      promotes muscle atrophy by an unknown mechanism. Results: ATF4 causes muscle atrophy by inducing Gadd45a, which reprograms myonuclear gene expression to repress anti-atrophy mechanisms and induce pro-atrophy mechanisms. Conclusion: Gadd45a is …

      Muscle Weakness & Atrophy Causes: disuse Pathophysiology: Loss of strength: Total inactivity ->10-20% decrease in muscle strength per week (1-3% per day); in 3-5 weeks of complete immobilization can lead to a 50% decrease in muscle strength Loss of muscle mass -3% loss within thigh muscles
