Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Ruqaiza Muhyudin's research investigates cellular and molecular adaptations in skeletal muscle, particularly in the context of disease and physiological challenges. Her recent publications examine the role of mitochondrial function and antioxidant strategies in mitigating muscle wasting associated with cancer cachexia, exploring these effects across biological sexes. Muhyudin also studies the impact of exercise on muscle adaptations during tumor induction and investigates myocellular responses to conditions simulating anorexia nervosa and subsequent weight restoration. Her work includes transcriptional analysis of cancer cachexia to identify conserved and sex-specific features. Muhyudin collaborates with Nicholas P. Greene, Tyrone A. Washington, Ana Regina Cabrera, and Eleanor R. Schrems, all at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications.
