Bioinformatics Analysis Identifies Key Genes in the Effect of Resistance Training on Female Skeletal Muscle Aging
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Resistance training is used to combat skeletal muscle function decline in older adults. Few studies have been designed specific for females, resulting in very limited treatment options for skeletal muscle atrophy in aging women. Here, we analyzed the gene expression profiles of skeletal muscle samples from sedentary young women, sedentary older women, and resistance-trained older women, using microarray data from public database. A total of 45 genes that were differentially expressed during female muscle aging and reversed by resistance training were identified. Functional and pathway enrichment analysis, protein-protein interaction network analysis, and receiver operating characteristic analysis were performed to reveal the key genes and pathways involved in the effects of resistance training on female muscle aging. The collagen genes COL1A1, COL3A1, and COL4A1 were identified important regulators of female muscle aging and resistance training, by modulating multiple signaling pathways, such as PI3 kinase-Akt signaling, focal adhesions, extracellular matrix-receptor interactions, and relaxin signaling. Interestingly, the expression of CDKN1A and TP63 were increased during aging, and further upregulated by resistance training in older women, suggesting they may negatively affect resistance training outcomes. Our findings provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms of resistance training on female muscle aging and identify potential biomarkers and targets for clinical intervention.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
