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. Recent research has achieved significant advances in functional design, ...

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 ...

Accelerating Drug Discovery with Human-Relevant 3D Engineered Muscle Tissue Analysis SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Curi Bio, a leading developer of human stem cell-based platforms for drug discovery, ...

Forget what you’ve heard about "toning" vs. "building"—science proves all muscle is created equal, and your ultimate look depends on two factors you can actually control.

Skeletal muscle tissue can self-repair minor injuries, but significant muscle loss leads to non-functional scar tissue. Current treatments mainly involve autologous muscle transfer. Tissue engineering ...

Tokyo, Japan – 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 ...

Mammoth Biosciences researchers have developed NanoCas, an ultracompact CRISPR nuclease, demonstrating its ability to perform ...

In a recent study published in Reviews in Medical Virology, researchers reviewed the mechanisms of muscle tissue injury, aggravating conditions, and associated sequelae in long coronavirus disease ...

As tumors grow, individual cancer cells can break off and circulate in the bloodstream. Like tiny seeds, these disseminating tumor cells (DTCs) often lodge in other organs and exploit the fertile, ...
