Light micrograph section through leg muscle tissue showing skeletal muscle atrophy. Skeletal muscle is a plastic organ that is maintained by multiple pathways regulating cell and protein turnover. During muscle atrophy, proteolytic systems are activated and contractile proteins and organelles are removed, resulting in the shrinkage of muscle fibres. Muscle loss also occurs during ageing.
