Researchers created a CRISPR-based platform to study human muscle formation, identifying hundreds of genes essential for ...

Researchers have identified a protein that’s critical to the development of skeletal muscle mass and strength and the tissue’s ability to metabolize glucose. They say their findings may lead to ...

As we age, our muscles atrophy. Earlier this year, researchers found that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a protein critical in skeletal muscle development loses its functionality due to nitration as ...

University of Delaware’s Mona Batish is a molecular biologist. She studies circular RNAs formed as a result of so-called molecular mistakes that occur when a strand of RNA — the ribonucleic acid that ...

Exploratory Phase 2a study showed consistent and clinically meaningful functional improvements across muscle strength, motor performance, and ...

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 ...

Muscles are formed by the merging of many small myoblasts into larger myofibers. This fusion of mononucleated myoblasts with a single nucleus into multinucleated myofibers with multiple nuclei is an ...

Researchers have developed a novel bioink that uses a sustained-release hormone to promote the growth and regeneration of 3D-printed muscle tissues. Their approach opens the door to developing new ...

Skeletal muscle and cardiovascular diseases continue to pose significant challenges to public health, affecting a wide range ...
