Researchers at Xi’an Jiaotong University have reported a way to bioprint three-dimensional skeletal muscle that combines ...

For decades, treatment of peripheral artery disease has focused almost exclusively on restoring blood flow. Now, new research ...

Researchers developed a high-sensitivity proteomics method to analyze individual human muscle fibers. The technique identified 37 protein variations, including key contractile proteins and their ...

BACKGROUND: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and its severe form, chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), significantly impair blood flow to the lower extremities, affecting millions of adults ...

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 ...

Stimulating muscle fibers with magnets causes them to grow in the same direction, aligning muscle cells within tissue. The findings offer a simpler, less time-consuming way for medical researchers to ...

Cell sheets are guided to form anchored, scaffold-free constructs for in vitro modeling by providing pillars that act as anchors for otherwise anchorless cell sheets. Credit: Advanced Functional ...

Combining lab-grown muscle tissue with a series of flexible mechanical joints has led to the development of an artificial hand that can grip and make gestures. The breakthrough shows the way forward ...

University of Delaware’s Mona Batish is a molecular biologist. She studies circular RNAs formed as a result of so-called molecular mistakes that occur when a strand of RNA — the ribonucleic acid that ...

A specific gut bacterium found in human stool samples is linked to significantly stronger muscles in both young and older adults, according to a peer-reviewed study published in the journal Gut. Older ...
