“…Sarcopenia and aging have been associated with the preferential atrophy of fast-twitch fibers and a glycolytic-to-oxidative metabolic shift [ 39 , 66 ]. In two recent studies conducted on older adults, individuals presenting with a hip fracture also showed extensive Type II (fast-twitch) muscle fiber atrophy [ 67 , 68 ]. Whilst glycolytic muscle fibers are responsible for rapid muscle force production during muscle contraction and therefore have an essential role in facilitating strength, they also fatigue quicker as their glycogen storage depletes during glycolysis.…”

“…Notably, muscle atrophy caused by aging occurs in type II fiber [ 26 ]. In our data, amelioration of muscle weight reduction by TE supplementation was observed in the tibialis anterior and extensor digitorum longus muscles in DEX-treated mice.…”

“…[57][58][59] The proportion of fast-twitch fibers has been reported to decrease with aging. 14,60,61 However, the proportion of fast-twitch fibers is thought to be greater in men than in women, and it is therefore thought that older men are more prone to the effects of aging than women. 62…”
