Arnarson A, Gudny Geirsdottir O, Ramel A, Jonsson P, Thorsdottir I
J Nutr Health Aging . 2015 Sep; 19(8):856-60. PMID: 26412290
Background: Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is related to the preservation of lean body mass. Its decline during ageing is thought to make old adults more susceptible to sarcopenia and functional...

Geirsdottir O, Arnarson A, Briem K, Ramel A, Jonsson P, Thorsdottir I
J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci . 2012 Apr; 67(11):1259-65. PMID: 22496538
Background: Insulin is a stimulator of skeletal muscle protein anabolism and insulin resistance might therefore negatively affect muscle protein metabolism. We investigated muscle mass and physical function before and after...
