It's well known that spaceflight causes muscle atrophy and other biological changes in reduced gravity, and especially in ...

A new 3D model shows that Duchenne gene therapy can repair muscle fibers but fails to shut down the signals that drive scarring.

Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned structure of animal skeletal muscle, producing materials that resist ...

Researchers have identified the role of the large Maf transcription factor family in regulating fast twitch muscle fibers. A mouse model lacking Maf expression in the skeletal muscles exhibited a ...

Researchers discovered that R. inulinivorans plays an important role in muscle strength and could act as a probiotic candidate for nutraceutical interventions targeting age-related muscle-wasting ...

The Brookbush Institute continues to enhance education with new articles, new courses, a modern glossary, an AI Tutor, ...

A specific gut bacterium found in human stool samples is linked to significantly stronger muscles in both young and older adults, according to a peer-reviewed study published in the journal Gut. Older ...

Researchers building a model of muscle damage in a cultured system found that components leaking from broken muscle fibers activate ''satellite cells,'' which are muscle stem cells. While attempting ...
