Brief Summary:
This project aims to investigate the intricate interplay between skeletal muscle and adipose tissue during the aging process by integrating human studies. Utilizing interventional research and randomized trials combined with examining blood samples from elderly individuals engaged in exercise, we aim to investigate the effects of exercise on muscle health and explore the underlying mechanisms of muscle aging and related biomarkers. Interdisciplinary research allowed us to investigate the systemic impact of exercise on muscles. This approach allowed us to gain a better understanding of the interconnectedness of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue in the aging process and devise efficient strategies to reverse age-related changes. These findings hold promise for promoting a future society where long and healthy life is achievable for all.
Detailed Description:
This study is a randomized controlled trial of 6-month multidomain intervention program among community-living older adults with early physical impairments.
Inclusion criteria are: (1) community-dwelling adults aged ≥ 65 years, (2) slow gait speed (\<1 m/s in 6-meter walk test) or weakness (dominant handgrip strength \<28 kg in men, \<18 kg in women); subjects with the following conditions will be excluded: (1) established diagnosis of dementia, Parkinsonism or other neurodegenerative disease (2) disable status: mobilitylimiting conditions, (3) active, acute diseases receiving treatment, such as cancer, heart failure, COPD and so on, (4) estimated life expectancy \<12 months, (5) current nursing home residents.
