Effects and Mechanisms of Long-Term Lycium barbarum Water Consumption on Skeletal Muscle Function in Aged Mice

With the global aging population, skeletal muscle aging has threatened to elderly health, making dietary interventions for age-related muscle decline a research priority. Lycium barbarum, a traditional food and medicinal herb, was used in the study to prepare Lycium barbarum water (LBW). This experiment was conducted in animals and included four groups: young control (C-Young), aged control (C-Aged), young LBW-drinking (G-Young), and aged LBW-drinking (G-Aged). Assessments covered skeletal...
