Collagen in aging muscles.

S Mohan, E Radha

    Experientia
    |October 15, 1975
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Aging impacts collagen in rat muscles, increasing insoluble collagen and decreasing salt-extractable collagen across red, white, and cardiac tissues. Red muscle shows higher total collagen content compared to white and cardiac muscle.

    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Gerontology
    • Muscle Physiology

    Background:

    • Collagen is a crucial structural protein in muscle tissue.
    • Aging is associated with various physiological changes in muscle composition.
    • Understanding age-related collagen alterations is vital for muscle health research.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To quantify salt, acid, and insoluble collagen fractions in different rat muscles.
    • To investigate the effects of aging on collagen composition in albino rats.
    • To compare collagen levels across red, white, and cardiac muscle types.

    Main Methods:

    • Estimation of salt, acid, and insoluble collagen fractions.
    • Analysis performed on red, white, and cardiac muscles.
    • Study included albino rats aged 10, 15, and 20 months.

    Main Results:

    • Total collagen relative to total protein was highest in red muscle.
    • Aging led to increased insoluble collagen in all studied muscle types.
    • Aging resulted in a decrease in salt-extractable collagen across all muscle types.

    Conclusions:

    • Aging significantly alters collagen distribution in rat muscles.
    • Insoluble collagen accumulation and salt-extractable collagen reduction are hallmarks of muscle aging.
    • Red muscle exhibits a distinct collagen profile compared to white and cardiac muscle.
