Researchers have generated mice lacking the estrogen receptor beta gene, both fiber-specific and muscle stem cell-specific, which resulted in abnormalities in the growth and regeneration of skeletal ...

Myosin chaperones are pivotal in ensuring proper muscle development by guiding the folding, assembly, and quality control of myosin motor proteins. These specialised proteins, such as UNC-45, ...

Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have found new applications of magnetic field therapy with potential benefits for food sustainability and metabolic health. The Wistar ...

Building muscles: Muscle stem cells (their nuclei marked in blue) gradually alter their structure and function, becoming adult muscle cells (whose nuclei turn red). Those cells will eventually fuse ...

Researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind roadmap of how human skeletal muscle develops, including the formation of muscle stem cells. An interdisciplinary team of researchers at the Eli and ...

The loss of muscle mass, or muscle atrophy, is a relatively common condition in today’s aging and increasingly sedentary societies. While the disuse of muscles is the most frequent catalyst for muscle ...

Detailed 3D images of embryos reveal that some muscles form and then vanish during early human development. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how ...

Researchers have harnessed mRNA-lipid nanoparticle vaccines to deliver antibody fragments to prevent snakebite-induced muscle ...
