Skeletal muscle blood flow regulation is a critical physiological process ensuring that active muscle tissue receives adequate oxygen and nutrients during both rest and exercise. This regulation is ...

Skeletal muscle mechanics and force generation are governed by complex interactions between contractile proteins and passive structural elements. At the cellular level, the sarcomere – the fundamental ...

Scientists from Tokyo Metropolitan University have discovered that a protein called platelet-derived growth factor subunit B (PDGF-B) is continuously secreted from skeletal muscle cells and helps to ...

Creatine is a natural source of energy that helps your skeletal muscles flex (contract). It helps create a steady supply of ...

Cutting calories has long been linked to longer life in lab animals, but scientists are now tracing that effect down to the ...

Scientists have developed a specially formulated bioink, which contains microparticles engineered for sustained delivery of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). This delivery enhances the formation ...

Researchers building a model of muscle damage in a cultured system found that components leaking from broken muscle fibers activate ''satellite cells,'' which are muscle stem cells. While attempting ...
