With muscle wasting and insulin resistance being central features of cancer cachexia, ageing, and diabetes, we are uncovering the pathology of these conditions at the molecular level. One area of particular interest is investigating the potential for exercise training to ameliorate or even reverse muscle wasting and metabolic aberrations. Specifically, we focus upon the intricate molecular pathways that govern the maintenance of cellular homeostasis, muscle mass and metabolism, mitochondrial biology, mitochondrial RNA stability, GLUT4 translocation, glucose uptake, insulin sensitivity, Rho GTPases, and adaptations arising from exercise training.
