The present disclosure provides compositions and methods based on the identification of 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) as a therapeutic target in aging, dystrophic muscle to improve muscle atrophy, increase muscle mass, function and strength. Further provided herein are compositions and methods for the rejuvenation of aged tissue. In particular, 15-PGDH inhibitors, such as SW033291, are used to elevate the levels of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in the muscle or tissue.
