Building functional human muscle in the laboratory has long been a goal of regenerative medicine, but one stubborn obstacle ...

A new 3D model shows that Duchenne gene therapy can repair muscle fibers but fails to shut down the signals that drive scarring.

A research team from Xi'an Jiaotong University has developed a new method for bioprinting skeletal muscle tissue.

When a muscle contracts, the parts of a sarcomere "shorten" and come closer together. Each cardiac muscle cell can have over 5,000 sarcomeres, which compounds both the shortening and relaxation events ...

Together, these findings suggest that ferulic acid can act as a natural regulator of intestinal motility. By reducing excessive smooth muscle activity, the compound could potentially help calm ...
