Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned ...

The mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction is a process that relies on calcium signaling. However, the physiological role of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through the ryanodine receptor ...

Researchers at the Wellcome Sanger Institute and at Sun Yat-sen University have generated what they claim is the first comprehensive atlas of aging muscles in humans. The team applied single-cell ...

In a finding that opens the door to the development of targeted therapies for various muscle disorders, newly published research identifies key mechanisms of skeletal muscle regeneration and growth of ...

How muscle changes with ageing, and tries to fight its effects, is now better understood at the cellular and molecular level with the first comprehensive atlas of ageing muscles in humans. Researchers ...

Since statins first came to market in the late 1980s, muscle aches, weakness, and fatigue have driven many patients to ...

A new study reveals that vesicles packed with healthy mitochondria can supercharge tissue repair and combat chronic disease, paving the way for next-generation regenerative treatments. Study: ...

As people age, muscles naturally lose mass and strength, a condition known as sarcopenia. The decline can make everyday activities harder and increases the risk of falls, disability and early death.
