Purdue University’s James Markworth, assistant professor of animal sciences, and PhD student Xinyue Lu observe results of immunofluorescent staining of a cross-sectional sample of skeletal muscle ...

A research team from Xi'an Jiaotong University has developed a new method for bioprinting skeletal muscle tissue.

Scientists have developed a specially formulated bioink, which contains microparticles engineered for sustained delivery of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). This delivery enhances the formation ...

The contraction process involves interactions between actin and myosin filaments within the sarcomeres to generate force. News organizations may use or redistribute this image, with proper attribution ...

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 ...

Building functional human muscle in the laboratory has long been a goal of regenerative medicine, but one stubborn obstacle ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have shown that the protein Musashi-2 (Msi2) plays a key role in the regulation of mass and metabolic processes in skeletal muscle. They studied mice ...

The mechanism for muscle stem cells repair could inspire therapeutics for muscle loss caused by injury, aging and weight-loss medications.
