A research group led by Dr. Naoya Kase and Prof. Megumu Saito have successfully established a model to evaluate skeletal muscle regeneration efficiency and determine how macrophages contribute to the ...
As people age, muscles naturally lose mass and strength, a condition known as sarcopenia. The decline can make everyday activities harder and increases the risk of falls, disability and early death.
The “atrofish” reveals early triggers of sarcopenia and links muscle loss to nerve degeneration, establishing a platform for comparative research on muscle aging and potential therapies As people age, ...
A new model mimics physiologic loads on engineering heart muscle tissues, yielding an unprecedented view of how genetics and mechanical forces contribute to heart muscle function. Efforts to ...
Scientists have created a bioengineered 3-D model that mimics the biology of two rare diseases. The researchers used the 'tissue chip' model to show how a drug could potentially treat the diseases, ...
A team at Oregon State University has engineered lipid nanoparticles that deliver messenger RNA to lung tumors while ...
