NUS researchers have developed a platform that lets lab-grown muscle tissues train themselves to record-breaking strength, ...

Myosin is a key molecular motor in eukaryotes from the plant and animal kingdoms. Interactions between myosin motor domains and actin filaments are powered by the turnover of ATP to generate force and ...

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 ...

Researchers developed a high-sensitivity proteomics method to analyze individual human muscle fibers. The technique identified 37 protein variations, including key contractile proteins and their ...

Swallowing is a fundamental human function that supports nutrition and communication. Damage to swallowing muscles can reduce ...

NUS scientists have developed a self-training method that strengthens lab-grown muscle tissues around the clock, and used them to power a living-muscle robot that swims faster than any of its ...

One morning in May 2019, a cardiac surgeon stepped into the operating room at Boston Children’s Hospital more prepared than ever before to perform a high-risk procedure to rebuild a child’s heart. The ...
