Ursodeoxycholic acid induces sarcopenia associated with decreased protein synthesis and autophagic flux

Abstract Background Skeletal muscle generates force and movements and maintains posture. Under pathological conditions, muscle fibers suffer an imbalance in protein synthesis/degradation. This event causes muscle mass loss and decreased strength and muscle function, a syndrome known as sarcopenia. R...
