Due to their high energetic profile, skeletal muscle fibers are prone to damage by endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby causing alterations in muscle function. Unfortunately, the ...

Conversely, sedentarism and aging impair the MPS and MPB response, often leading to muscle atrophy. “Inactivity leads to the desensitization of skeletal muscle to dietary amino acids. The removal of ...

Skeletal muscles from different species have been decellularized through several methods, that differ among authors. For instance, canine skeletal muscles have been processed with a combination of ...

The researchers then inserted these plasmids into cows’ muscle cells, finding that they differentiated into skeletal muscle cells, common components of steaks and beef burgers, that grew and ...

In order to move, skeletal muscles connected to the bones of the body must be triggered to contract. This requires nerves in the brain to activate cells within muscle to release calcium ions from ...

FIGURE 1. (A) H&E staining illustrating the normal acute muscle injury repair process following intramuscular BaCl 2 injection into mouse quadriceps muscle. Bar = 50 μm. (B) Pie chart showing ...

A study demonstrates that extracellular vesicles (EVs) deliver genetic instructions for the longevity protein Klotho to muscle cells. Aging mice show a decline in muscle function and impaired repair ...
