This study explores the use of ultrasonication to align and enhance the differentiation of myotubes, providing a non-invasive ...

As muscles age, their cells lose the ability to regenerate and heal after injury. Now, Cornell University researchers have created the most comprehensive portrait to date of how that change, in mice, ...

Developing reliable methods to replace damaged tissue remains a central goal in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Skeletal muscle tissue demonstrates global hypermethylation with aging. However, methylome changes across the time-course of ...

Helical structures are ubiquitous across biology, from the double-stranded helix of DNA to how heart muscle cells spiral in a band. Inspired by this twisty ladder, researchers have developed an ...

Japanese researchers have developed an ultrasound-based method to control the orientation and differentiation of myoblast ...

It showed that myokines released during exercise boost the rate at which motor neurons grow. (Motor neurons are nerve cells that control movement.) This study is the first to show that, beyond ...
