The field of exercise genetics has rapidly evolved to elucidate how genetic variants influence athletic performance and muscle response. Extensive research has associated specific polymorphisms—most ...

As people age, muscles naturally lose mass and strength, a condition known as sarcopenia. The decline can make everyday activities harder and increases the risk of falls, disability and early death.

The mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction is a process that relies on calcium signaling. However, the physiological role of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through the ryanodine receptor ...

Space exploration activity has been increasing. In turn, researchers are more interested than ever in uncovering more about how space travel affects human health and the progression of disease.
