Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Investigation and evaluation for anti-sarcopenia effects were performed using evaluating system for anti-sarcopenia effects constructed by cultured mouse skeletal muscle cells. As results, fermented milk Kefir exhibited the enhancing effect of cellular energy metabolism on skeletal muscle cells. It strongly suggested that Kefir had the ability of intracellular mitochondrial activation. Furthermore, mouse skeletal muscle cells in proteolytic status induced by TNF-α treatment were partially improved by Kefir treatment. It suggested that Kefir had anti-sarcopenia effects.
