Building functional human muscle in the laboratory has long been a goal of regenerative medicine, but one stubborn obstacle remains: real muscle is not just a mass of cells. Its strength and function ...

Scientists at the University of California, Irvine's School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences have discovered how muscle ...

A UCLA study in mice reveals that aging muscle stem cells accumulate a protein that slows repair but boosts survival. This ...

Getting DNA into a living cell sounds simple, until you remember the cell’s outer membrane acts like a guarded wall. DNA strands carry a negative charge, and they do not cross that wall easily.

A new study explains how a tiny enzyme switch helps muscles make energy during exercise and may even connect to diabetes risk ...

Scientists at the University of California, Irvine's School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences have discovered how muscle stem cells "flip a switch" to rebuild damaged muscle—a finding that could ...

Muscle tissue from aged mice seven days after injury. Left: Aged mice with normal NDRG1 levels show slower regeneration with smaller muscle fibers. Right: Aged mice in which NDRG1 was recently blocked ...

Researchers have investigated the role of a certain enzyme in regulating energy in muscle and exercise performance for ...

New study reveals how influenza virus infiltrates heart tissue via specialised immune cells, triggering damaging interferon ...
