Masseter Muscle Volume, Sarcopenia, and Muscle Determinants: Insights from ACTN3 Polymorphism in Elderly Japanese in the Bunkyo Health Study
Low MMV increased the risk of sarcopenia, particularly in men. BMI and age strongly influenced ASMM, while MMV was only weakly associated with BMI and not with age. Notably, IGF-1 level was positively associated with MMV only, and ACTN3 genotype was associated to reduced MMV only in men.
