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, ...

Skeletal muscle and cardiovascular diseases continue to pose significant challenges to public health, affecting a wide range ...

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 ...

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 ...

Skeletal muscle tissue engineering therapies offer a means to treat a variety of different muscle related diseases and trauma, including volumetric muscle loss, muscle dystrophy, critical limb ...

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at ...

Using a simple yet effective technique, researchers from Doshisha University could harness ultrasound vibrations generated by a piezoelectric transducer to control the orientation of cultured ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — A University at Buffalo-led research team has shown that a protein named for the mythical land of youth in Irish folklore is effective at reversing aging in skeletal muscle cells.

MXene nanoparticle scaffolds have been shown to stimulate muscle growth, making them a promising option to treat muscle loss and damage. Now, researchers explain the molecular mechanisms behind their ...

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 ...
