Muscle loss (atrophy) due to inactivity is common after illness, injury, hospitalization or falls, and becomes increasingly ...

Researchers identified a molecular pathway that can limit muscle repair, a finding that may guide future muscular dystrophy ...

Researchers have identified a protein that’s critical to the development of skeletal muscle mass and strength and the tissue’s ability to metabolize glucose. They say their findings may lead to ...

Researchers in the Division of Nutritional Sciences have identified a molecular mechanism that constrains skeletal muscle regeneration and myofiber ...

Skeletal muscle is the type of muscle that controls movement. Problems with these muscles can be minor, life-threatening, or ongoing problems that make it hard to perform basic daily activities.

The film explores the muscular system of the human body, detailing the roles and functions of the three types of muscles: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Skeletal muscles, which are voluntary and work ...

A study by Indiana University School of Medicine researchers sheds new light on the development and treatment of a rare form of muscular dystrophy. The study's findings were recently published in ...

NMD Pharma A/S, a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to developing novel therapies to restore skeletal muscle health, today announced that top-line data results from its Phase 2a ...

University of Delaware’s Mona Batish is a molecular biologist. She studies circular RNAs formed as a result of so-called molecular mistakes that occur when a strand of RNA — the ribonucleic acid that ...
