Mechanisms underlying mechanical overload-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy have
been extensively researched since the landmark report by Morpurgo (1897) of “work …

The prevalence of obesity in combination with sarcopenia (the age-related loss of muscle
mass and strength or physical function) is increasing in adults aged 65 years and older. A …

One of the most striking adaptations to exercise is the skeletal muscle hypertrophy that
