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 ...

The human body moves through a coordinated effort of skeletal muscles, working in concert to generate force. While some muscles align in a single direction, others form intricate patterns, enabling ...

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 ...

In their study, "Transcriptomic Analysis of Skeletal Muscle Regeneration Across Mouse Lifespan Identifies Altered Stem Cell ...

University of Rennes researchers have discovered that transplanting gut microbiota from elite athletes into mice improves ...

Next, using a genetically manipulated mouse model, which boosted NAD + production specifically in muscle stem cells, the team of scientists found that NAD + induces inflammatory responses and ...
