肌肉大概佔據身體重量的40%。339Please respect copyright.PENANAdvVNPSXFKM

踏入50歲後,平均每10年就會有15-30%的肌肉流失。339Please respect copyright.PENANARst6DrbBAq

(圖2)研究(Ref1)顯示老人家的肌肉裡頭,一隻名為15-PGDH的蛋白酶數量普遍地比年輕人為高。339Please respect copyright.PENANAdY5idJeCh6
339Please respect copyright.PENANAIMbBXA1C7n
339Please respect copyright.PENANARLtjQznXCa
而15-PGDH其中一道作用就是負責將激素PGE2及PGD2分解成為其他物質。339Please respect copyright.PENANAGiCeAYP883

(圖3)而人類老化所出現的現象,老鼠亦能同樣發現得到。339Please respect copyright.PENANAlCdw6l8ewI
除肌肉外,年長老鼠的心、肝、脾、大腸及皮膚亦出現15-PGDH蛋白酶上升的現象。339Please respect copyright.PENANAwQlVwWjeDV
339Please respect copyright.PENANAgXpILSuLCA
339Please respect copyright.PENANAJYYbjB347W
當利用藥物或基因工程手段降低年老老鼠的15-PGDH數量的話,肌肉重量亦會有所提升。339Please respect copyright.PENANAiwG65g0Wcb
339Please respect copyright.PENANAZa71JNDYHE
相反,若強行在年輕老鼠肌肉裡頭強行表達15-PGDH的話,肌肉重量亦會有所下降。339Please respect copyright.PENANAG8DYacWOME
339Please respect copyright.PENANAJHXAlloxGF
這道研究展示出,只需對一隻蛋白酶作出針對性的抑制,便能夠達到控制肌肉重量及結構的奇效。339Please respect copyright.PENANAGGEjCJYqKm
339Please respect copyright.PENANAbkycTMM63l
現時已有藥物可抑制15-PGDH,但對於人類肌肉影響的臨床研究則欠奉。339Please respect copyright.PENANAlGrGK4i3LB
339Please respect copyright.PENANAyYWcFptTJf
只不過的是,現今均普遍認為增加體內細胞NAD數量的話,便可舒緩甚至是扭轉細胞的老化現象。然而,15-PGDH卻需要NAD才能正常運作,這一方面所出現的矛盾則未能解釋得到。339Please respect copyright.PENANABJCErtSp5h
