In the new study, published in Science Advances, researchers have identified a previously unknown molecule, TMEM9B-AS1, which may explain why people with type 2 diabetes often suffer from muscle ...

The skeletal muscles of men and women process glucose and fats in different ways. A study conducted by the University Hospital of Tübingen, the Institute for Diabetes Research and Metabolic Diseases ...

In a finding that opens the door to the development of targeted therapies for various muscle disorders, newly published research identifies key mechanisms of skeletal muscle regeneration and growth of ...

Researchers have investigated the effect of increased cell temperature on the contractility of skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle by heating the muscle proteins using advanced microscopical techniques ...

A recent study published in Cell by the Millay lab reports on an elegant strategy to expand the repertoire of lentiviral (LV) vectors from being the main delivery tool for ex vivo gene therapy to an ...

Muscle mass naturally begins to decline after the age of 30 and often becomes more noticeable after 35. While many people ...

With reduced muscle strength and control, balance is affected. This increases the chances of stumbling and falling, especially in older adults. A common symptom of sarcopenia is a decrease in muscle ...

The molecular underpinnings of the extensive cellular, morphological and functional plasticity of skeletal muscle in exercise training are poorly understood. We have now begun to unravel the complex ...
