When it comes to heart issues, most people know about heart attacks and cardiac arrest, but they mistakenly assume that they are the same thing. In reality, they are two very diff ...

A new oral drug mimics exercise, burns fat, lowers blood sugar, and preserves muscle mass, potentially outperforming Ozempic ...

Engineering tissue-like scaffolds that can mimic the microstructure, architecture, topology, and mechanical properties of native tissues while offering an excellent environment for cellular growth has ...

We investigated alterations in material properties such as elasticity and viscoelasticity of stroke-affected muscles using ultrasound induced shear waves and mechanical models. We used acoustic ...

Results: Activation of Akt1 signaling in myofibers led to a modest increase in skeletal muscle mass. Skeletal muscle-specific activation of Akt1 led to diminished left ventricular dilation and reduced ...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is due to review data on deramiocel, a cell therapy up for approval for heart disease ...

Designing scaffolds that can mimic native skeletal muscle tissue and induce 3D cellular alignment and elongated myotube formation remains an ongoing challenge for skeletal muscle tissue engineering.

We propose that direct, non-tie2 interactions of angiopoietin-1 on cardiac myocytes contribute to this cardioprotection. We found that mouse C2C12 skeletal myocytes lack tie2, yet dose-dependently ...

Cardiogen peptide has emerged as a subject of scientific inquiry due to its potential support for cardiac tissue regeneration, cellular adaptation, and vascular integrity. Investigations suggest that ...

Cell-based therapy using satellite stem cells (SSCs) holds tremendous potential for enhancing muscle regeneration. However, conventional isolation methods often yield heterogeneous cell populations ...
