Older adults: Build muscle and you'll live longer ! A LOT LONGER !

The more muscle mass older Americans have, the less likely they are to die prematurely.


Two common but distinct conditions characterized by a loss of skeletal muscle mass are Sarcopenia and Cachexia. Sarcopenia, cachexia, and anorexic disorders (protein-energy malnutrition) represent the major causes of muscle-wasting disorders.


Xenogeneic cell-based treatment with expanded human placenta stromal cells, predominantly from fetal origin (PLX-RAD cells/PLX-R18), were shown to mitigate significantly acute radiation syndrome (ARS) following high dose irradiation in mice, with expedited regain of weight loss and hematopoietic function.
