Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Zain B. Malik's research investigates the impact of exercise on cancer cachexia in mice. His work focuses on how exercise training, both prior to and during cancer development, can preserve muscle mass, reduce tumor weight, and mitigate the molecular pathways associated with cachexia. Malik has published raw data related to fractional synthetic rate, muscle fiber type composition, cross-sectional area, body and tissue weights, food consumption, running distance, grip strength, and mRNA levels in the gastrocnemius muscle. He has 11 total publications, with his most recent published in 2026. Malik collaborates with Micah Goeke at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, with whom he shares 11 co-authored publications.
