If cancer is a disease of overabundance, where cells divide without restraint and tumors grow despite the body's best interests, then degenerative diseases are disorders of deprivation. When ...
The mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction is a process that relies on calcium signaling. However, the physiological role of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through the ryanodine receptor ...
Muscles are formed by the merging of many small myoblasts into larger myofibers. This fusion of mononucleated myoblasts with a single nucleus into multinucleated myofibers with multiple nuclei is an ...
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 ...

Future of robots powered by living muscle cells mapped by Harvard-led study
A new research paper suggests scientists are working on designing robots that could live on muscle cells like humans, ...
For more than 30 years, scientists have studied how the myogenic determination gene number 1 (MYOD) protein binds DNA to modify the gene expression of muscle stem cells. Similar to the instant kung fu ...
