Abnormally high blood sugar (glucose) levels can result in Type 2 diabetes when things go awry with the body's skeletal muscle, which plays a key role in regulating glucose. Scientists are using in ...

Researchers analyzed DNA methylation in human skeletal muscle and identified age-linked epigenetic markers that enable highly ...

Scientists are using in vitro skeletal muscle engineering to gain a better understanding of the complex genetic and environmental factors underlying diabetes, putting lab-grown, healthy skeletal ...

Researchers have provided an in-depth analysis of 3D in vitro biomimetic skeletal muscle tissue models, highlighting the great potential of bioprinting technology. Skeletal muscle can be functionally ...

This genetic model suggests otherwise, indicating that coupled gating or other mechanical interactions, rather than CICR, drive activation of uncoupled RyR1 channels. Interestingly, the researchers ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) causes dysfunction of muscle cells that help move blood through the circulatory system, a study found. The changes associated with DMD included dysregulated activity ...

Anorexia nervosa is a psychiatric condition characterized by a fear of weight gain and reduced calorie consumption that can ...
