Researchers at Kumamoto University have demonstrated that iron supplementation can significantly alleviate muscle pathology ...

In work published in Nature Biotechnology, Rubin and his research group turned to 3D cell culture to take on the problem of generating sufficient satellite cells for regenerative therapies. 2 ...

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 ...

Severe skeletal muscle injury, especially volumetric muscle loss, remains difficult to treat because effective regeneration ...

Explore the impact of OPA1 deletion in skeletal muscle on mitochondrial–endoplasmic reticulum (ER) tethering and the electron microscopy techniques used to investigate these mitochondrial–ER contact ...

In a world with rapidly aging societies, there’s a need for a detailed understanding of the cause and progression of diseases associated with aging. Skeletal muscle is the key motor system in the ...

Researchers have investigated the effect of increased cell temperature on the contractility of skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle by heating the muscle proteins using advanced microscopical techniques ...

A new discovery may explain why so many people abandon cholesterol-lowering statins because of muscle pain and weakness.

When bones break and there is extreme tissue loss--such as after a car accident or a battlefield injury--current treatments don't often lead to effective healing. But certain stem cells from skeletal ...
