UCLA researchers found NDRG1 builds up in old muscle stem cells, slowing repair but boosting survival. Blocking it speeds ...

Researchers have uncovered a molecular “switch” that helps explain why exercise keeps ageing muscles healthy. By reducing ...

Muscle-on-chip systems are three-dimensional human muscle cell bundles cultured on collagen scaffolds. A Stanford University research team sent some of these systems to the International Space Station ...

Study finds out why exercise reverses muscle ageing ...

Thirty marks the spot. Starting at this age, we begin to lose approximately three to eight percent of muscle mass per decade. With it, we also lose strength and mobility. Left unaddressed, this loss ...

The population across developed countries is getting older and the associated frailty and debilitation are becoming major health problems. This gradual muscle loss is accelerated by the poor capacity ...

A new study generated one of the most comprehensive spatially resolved transcriptomic maps of cellular communication between ...

Harvard stem cell biologists have pioneered a groundbreaking 3D organoid culture method for generating large numbers of adult skeletal muscle satellite cells, also known as muscle stem cells, in vitro ...

A new study suggests that statins may activate inflammatory "danger signals" inside muscle cells, leading to weakness and ...

Skeletal muscle organoids help scientists bypass bottlenecks in satellite cell production for muscle regeneration research. Researchers typically create organoid models for other biological systems ...

Millions of people rely on statins, a medication used to lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.
