Muscle wasting in ageing but otherwise healthy human beings is referred to as sarcopenia. Unlike cachexia in advanced stages of chronic heart failure, muscle wasting per se is not necessarily associated with weight loss. In this review, we discuss pathophysiological mechanisms underlying muscle loss in sarcopenia and cachexia, highlight similarities and differences of both conditions, and discuss therapeutic targets and possible treatments, such as exercise training, nutritional support, and drugs. Candidate drugs to treat muscle wasting disease include myostatin antagonists, ghrelin agonists, selective androgen receptor molecules, megestrol acetate, activin receptor antagonists, espindolol, and fast skeletal muscle troponin inhibitors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Present approaches to muscle wasting disease include exercise training, nutritional support, and drugs, although particularly the latter remain currently restricted to clinical studies. Optimizing skeletal muscle mass and function in ageing and chronic illness including heart failure is one of the chapters that are far from finished and gains future potential for new therapeutic
