Or, Ng realized, they could simply do both. To increase their chances of success, and in hopes of learning more about fiber subtypes, Ng and his team started with mouse leg muscle tissue, as its ...

We previously found that local delivery of mIgf-1 to individual mouse muscles by AAV virus-mediated gene transfer blocks age-related loss of muscle size and strength 26, which is at least ...

MSMP activation or inhibition elicit rapid neural activity with muscle contraction or impair muscle activity in response to ...

We identified one particular microRNA, miR-486, as a muscle-enriched miRNA that is strongly reduced in expression levels in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), but not the milder Becker muscular ...

This is because ancient scholars thought that some muscles, like the biceps, looked like tiny mice moving under the skin. But muscles are far more than just an interesting name – they play a vital ...

Skeletal muscle organoids help scientists bypass bottlenecks in satellite cell production for muscle regeneration research.
