Muscle cells contain their own circadian clocks and disrupting them with shift work can have a profound impact on aging, according to the results of a preclinical study carried out by Jeffrey Kelu ...

That acknowledgment eventually led him to pursue a PhD in muscle cell biology. When we talk about muscle memory, most of the time we refer to the way our bodies seem to remember how to do things ...

Growing muscles in a lab usually means a liquid medium to supply nutrients and oxygen to muscle cells seeded on petri dishes or applied to gel scaffoldings. Since these cultured muscles are small ...

Expert coaches say the mind-muscle connection (MMC) is one of the most important factors to consider when exercising, whether you enjoy Pilates, lifting weights, yoga, or running. As a trainer ...

The first clue about the possible connection between brain and muscle cells came when Janelia scientists noticed something strange about the endoplasmic reticulum, or ER—the membranous sheets ...

Now a lab-grown patch of heart muscle engineered from induced pluripotent stem cells may hold promise. A paper published Wednesday in Nature describes success in rhesus macaques and in one patient ...

Injecting regulatory T cells or Tregs, which control the body’s immune responses, directly into damaged bone, muscle and skin significantly boosts healing, according to new research. The door is ...

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 ...

The team applied single-cell technologies and advanced imaging to analyze human skeletal muscle samples from 17 individuals across the adult lifespan. Their resulting map provides new insights ...

In a new study, stopping skeletal-muscle cancer cells from making a specific protein forced them to turn into healthy muscle cells. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...
