Exploring Osteoporosis and Sarcopenia Special Collection. Thyroxine does not improve skeletal muscle regeneration after injury in aged mice. By Thamires Siqueira Oliveira et al. Image is the Graphical Abstract from doi.org/10.1530/JOE-25-0203. Journal of Endocrinology logo.
💪New research by Thamires Siqueira de Oliveira et al. demonstrates that low‑dose thyroxine (T4) replacement does not improve muscle regeneration post-injury in elderly mice. Instead, T4 replacement therapy seemed to induce atrophy & tissue remodeling.
