Development of a new SonovueTM contrast-enhanced ultrasound approach reveals temporal and age-related features of muscle microvascular responses to feeding (2013)
Journal Article
Mitchell, W. K., Phillips, B. E., Williams, J. P., Rankin, D., Smith, K., Lund, J. N., & Atherton, P. J. (2013). Development of a new SonovueTM contrast-enhanced ultrasound approach reveals temporal and age-related features of muscle microvascular responses to feeding. Physiological Reports, 1(5), Article e00119. https://doi.org/10.1002/phy2.119

Compromised limb blood flow in aging may contribute to the development of sarcopenia, frailty, and the metabolic syndrome. We developed a novel contrast-enhanced ultrasound technique using Sonovue™ to characterize muscle microvasculature responses to...

Molecular networks of human muscle adaptation to exercise and age (2013)
Journal Article
Phillips, B. E., Williams, J. P., Gustafsson, T., Bouchard, C., Rankinen, T., Knudsen, S., …Atherton, P. J. (2013). Molecular networks of human muscle adaptation to exercise and age. PLoS Genetics, 9(3), Article e1003389. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pgen.1003389

Physical activity and molecular ageing presumably interact to precipitate musculoskeletal decline in humans with age. Herein, we have delineated molecular networks for these two major components of sarcopenic risk using multiple independent clinical...
