Scientists have developed a novel approach of genome editing to repair muscle stem (satellite) cells, offering new hope for ...

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 ...

One of the biggest quests in biology is understanding how every cell in an animal's body carries an identical genome yet ...

“Expression tells us what cells do, but regulatory DNA tells us where they come from, how they develop, and which germ layer ...

Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative computational method, called ddHodge, that can reconstruct ...

Cancer patients often lose excessive amounts of weight. This affects up to 80% of patients and is mainly due to a decrease in muscle mass and fatty tissue. This cancer-induced cachexia (CIC) is ...

We all want to know if and how we can come back to form after injury, illness, or a long hiatus. Muscles adapt in response to the environment: They grow when we put in the work and shrink when we stop ...

Muvon Therapeutics has linked its cell therapy to a 60% drop in stress incontinence episode frequency in a small phase 2 trial, leading the biotech to pitch the candidate as a way to reduce reliance ...

Building muscle depends on several factors and isn't something that'll happen overnight after just one workout.

The other experimental drug is bimagrumab, which is designed to help patients on weight loss medications from losing too much ...
