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 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 ...

The loss of muscle mass, or muscle atrophy, is a relatively common condition in today’s aging and increasingly sedentary societies. While the disuse of muscles is the most frequent catalyst for muscle ...

In the world of weightlifting, some people gain more muscle faster than others, no matter what they do. Now, a novel human study may explain why this happens. A team of researchers from the University ...

Research into fish muscle development has increasingly focused on the intricate interplay between growth factors and gene expression. The emergence of advanced molecular techniques has elucidated ...

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 ...

Detailed 3D images of embryos reveal that some muscles form and then vanish during early human development. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how ...

Researchers have harnessed mRNA-lipid nanoparticle vaccines to deliver antibody fragments to prevent snakebite-induced muscle ...
