Messa G, Piasecki M, Hill C, McPhee J, Tallis J, Degens H
Exp Gerontol . 2019 Aug; 125:110684. PMID: 31400439
One of the hallmarks of ageing is muscle wasting that may be preceded by morphological changes, such as capillary rarefaction. Muscle-specific changes in morphology in early ageing may differ between...

Piasecki M, Ireland A, Piasecki J, Degens H, Stashuk D, Swiecicka A, et al.
Front Physiol . 2019 May; 10:449. PMID: 31080415
The evidence concerning the effects of exercise in older age on motor unit (MU) numbers, muscle fiber denervation and reinnervation cycles is inconclusive and it remains unknown whether any effects...

Piasecki J, McPhee J, Hannam K, Deere K, Elhakeem A, Piasecki M, et al.
Arch Osteoporos . 2018 Jul; 13(1):72. PMID: 29971503
Purpose: We examined the relationship between prolonged participation in regular sprint or endurance running and skeletal health at key clinical sites in older age, and the factors responsible for any...

Piasecki M, Ireland A, Piasecki J, Stashuk D, Swiecicka A, Rutter M, et al.
J Physiol . 2018 Mar; 596(9):1627-1637. PMID: 29527694
Key Points: The age-related loss of muscle mass is related to the loss of innervating motor neurons and denervation of muscle fibres. Not all denervated muscle fibres are degraded; some...

Piasecki J, Ireland A, Piasecki M, Cameron J, McPhee J, Degens H
Scand J Med Sci Sports . 2018 Jan; 28(5):1559-1568. PMID: 29380429
Regular intense endurance exercise can lead to amenorrhea with possible adverse consequences for bone health. We compared whole body and regional bone strength and skeletal muscle characteristics between amenorrheic (AA:...

Piasecki M, Ireland A, Piasecki J, Stashuk D, McPhee J, Jones D
Eur J Appl Physiol . 2018 Jan; 118(4):767-775. PMID: 29356950
Purpose: Current methods for estimating muscle motor unit (MU) number provide values which are remarkably similar for muscles of widely differing size, probably because surface electrodes sample from similar and...

Coulson J, Bagley L, Barnouin Y, Bradburn S, Butler-Browne G, Gapeyeva H, et al.
Osteoporos Int . 2017 Jun; 28(9):2683-2689. PMID: 28585053
Introduction: This study aims to investigate the relationship between whole-body bone mineral density (WBMD) and levels of circulating factors with known roles in bone remodelling during 'healthy' ageing. Methods: WBMD...

Heffernan S, Stebbings G, Kilduff L, Erskine R, Day S, Morse C, et al.
BMC Genet . 2017 Jan; 18(1):4. PMID: 28103813
Background: FTO gene variants have been associated with obesity phenotypes in sedentary and obese populations, but rarely with skeletal muscle and elite athlete phenotypes. Methods: In 1089 participants, comprising 530...

Hannam K, Deere K, Hartley A, Clark E, Coulson J, Ireland A, et al.
Osteoporos Int . 2016 Nov; 28(3):1001-1011. PMID: 27798733
Introduction: We aimed to validate a novel method for evaluating day-to-day higher impact weight-bearing physical activity (PA) in older adults, thought to be important in protecting against osteoporosis, by comparing...

Heffernan S, Kilduff L, Erskine R, Day S, McPhee J, McMahon G, et al.
Physiol Genomics . 2016 Jan; 48(3):196-201. PMID: 26757799
We aimed to quantify the ACE I/D and ACTN3 R577X (rs1815739) genetic variants in elite rugby athletes (rugby union and league) and compare genotype frequencies to controls and between playing...
