REINNERVATION OF VASTUS LATERALIS IS INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY IN SENIORS (70-YEARS OLD) WITH A LIFELONG HISTORY OF HIGH-LEVEL EXERCISE

Reinnervation of Vastus lateralis is increased significantly in seniors (70-years old) with a lifelong history of high-level exercise

It has long been recognized that histological changes observed in aging muscle suggest that denervation contributes to muscle deterioration and that disuse accelerates the process while running activity, sustained for decades, protects against age-related loss of motor units.Here we show at the histological level that lifelong increased physical ac

Exploitation of other social amoebae by Dictyostelium caveatum.

Dictyostelium amoebae faced with starvation trigger a developmental program during which many cells aggregate and form fruiting bodies that consist of a ball of spores held aloft by a thin stalk.This developmental strategy is open to several forms of exploitation, including the remarkable case of Dictyostelium caveatum, which, even when it constitu
