While it is often overlooked, muscle physiology and synthesis of skeletal muscle plays a critical role in the health of veterinary patients. Loss of muscle can have a significant impact on a multitude of functions, reduce quality of life and be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Loss of muscle mass from disease and injury is commonly seen in the clinic. Age-related loss of lean body mass has significant impacts on frailty in older dogs.

Many of us have not thought critically about these mechanisms since we left vet school. When presented with these cases, we are often at a loss of what to do, or feel that there is little that can be done. With improved understanding of these complex mechanisms, key strategies and treatment options can be identified, leading to earlier intervention, and ultimately improving the quality and quantity of life of our patients.
