Experimental models for elderly patients with membranous nephropathy: Application and advancements
Exp Gerontol. 2023 Nov 30:112341. doi: 10.1016/j.exger.2023.112341. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMembranous nephropathy (MN) occurs predominantly in middle-aged and elderly individuals and ranks among the most prevalent etiologies of elderly nephrotic syndrome. As an autoimmune glomerular disorder characterized by glomerular basement membrane thickening and immune complex deposition, conventional MN animal models, including the Heymann nephritis rat model and the c-BSA mouse model, have laid a foundation for MN pathogenesis research. However, differences in target antigens between rodents and humans have impeded this work...

The combined deleterious effects of multiple sclerosis and ageing on neuromuscular function
CONCLUSION: The combined negative effects of MS and ageing on neuromuscular function were especially present in the PF but also substantial in the KE. RFD showed large deficits for pwMS compared to HC across age groups. The findings can partly be explained by a reduction in VA and RT, but further investigations of neural regulation are needed to explain large RFD deficits.PMID:38029888 | DOI:10.1016/j.exger.2023.112339 (Source: Experimental Gerontology)

Effects of free versus restricted arm movements on postural control in normal and modified sensory conditions in young and older adults
Exp Gerontol. 2023 Nov 26:112338. doi: 10.1016/j.exger.2023.112338. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to explore the effects of arm movements on postural control when standing under different sensory conditions in healthy young and older adults. Fifteen young (mean ± SD age; 21.3 ± 4.2 years) and 15 older (mean ± SD age; 73.3 ± 5.0 years) adults completed the modified Romberg test, which uses four task manipulations (i.e. eyes open and eyes closed on a firm and foam surface) to compromise the fidelity of sensory feedback mechanisms. Each participant completed the tasks under two arm movement c...
