Abstract
Sarcopenia, characterized by loss of muscle mass, quality, and function, poses significant risks in aging. We previously demonstrated that long-term treatment with AdipoRon (AR), an adiponectin receptor agonist, alleviated myosteatosis and muscle degeneration in middle-aged obese mice. This study aimed to determine if a shorter AR treatment could effectively offset sarcopenia in older mice. Two groups of old mice (20–23 months) were studied, one untreated (O) and one orally-treated with AR (O-AR) at 50 mg/kg/day for three months, compared with control 3-month-old young mice (Y) or 10-month-old young-adult mice (C-10). Results showed that AR remarkably inversed the loss of muscle mass by restoring the sarcopenia index and fiber count, which were greatly diminished with age. Additionally, AR successfully saved muscle quality of O mice by halving the accumulation of tubular aggregates and aberrant mitochondria, through AMPK pathway activation and enhanced autophagy. AR also bolstered muscle function by rescuing mitochondrial activity and improving exercise endurance. Finally, AR markedly curbed muscle fibrosis and mitigated local/systemic inflammation. Thus, a late three-month AR treatment successfully opposed sarcopenia and counteracted various hallmarks of aging, suggesting AR as a promising anti-aging therapy for skeletal muscles, potentially extending healthspan.

期刊介绍:
Antioxidants (ISSN 2076-3921), provides an advanced forum for studies related to the science and technology of antioxidants. It publishes research papers, reviews and communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation or experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary electronic material.
