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 ...

Researchers at Kumamoto University, Japan generated mice lacking the estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) gene, both fiber-specific and muscle stem cell-specific, which resulted in abnormalities in the growth ...

Researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind roadmap of how human skeletal muscle develops, including the formation of muscle stem cells. An interdisciplinary team of researchers at the Eli and ...

The film discusses the human skeleton and muscles through the perspective of a college student explaining to his younger brother. It covers the structure and function of bones, including their ...

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 ...

Skeletal muscle loss is a risk factor for developing dementia, according to a study being presented today at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). Skeletal muscles ...

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 ...

A new study finds that muscle impairment from anorexia nervosa may continue even after lost weight has been regained, a common indicator of successful treatment.

Researchers have generated mice lacking the estrogen receptor beta gene, both fiber-specific and muscle stem cell-specific, which resulted in abnormalities in the growth and regeneration of skeletal ...
