Age-related muscle loss affects strength, balance, metabolism, and independence. But with the right exercise, nutrition, and ...

Is your backside trying to tell you something? New research suggests that the shape of the GM — not just the size — could be ...

A recent study has shed new light on the role of fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) in muscle regeneration, fibrosis, and degeneration. These cells play a crucial part in tissue homeostasis, and ...

Muscle-on-chip systems are three-dimensional human muscle cell bundles cultured on collagen scaffolds. A Stanford University research team sent some of these systems to the International Space Station ...

Repeated exercise, or wasting, can change the way key genes work.

With the global population aging rapidly, sarcopenia, a condition that affects millions of older adults and severely diminishes their quality of life, is emerging as an urgent public health issue. Now ...

Space exploration activity has been increasing. In turn, researchers are more interested than ever in uncovering more about how space travel affects human health and the progression of disease.

Scientists have discovered how exercise protects aging muscles by suppressing DEAF1, a molecule they identified as a driver ...

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

With the global population ageing rapidly, sarcopenia, a condition that affects millions of older adults and severely diminishes their quality of life, is emerging as an urgent public health issue.

Skeletal muscle stem cells in hibernating Syrian hamsters preserve their ability to function by suppressing their activation ...

The muscular dystrophies are commonly associated with cardiovascular complications, including cardiomyopathy and cardiac arrhythmias. These complications are caused by intrinsic defects in ...
