Learn about the critical role of skeletal muscle in overall health, and the importance of maintaining muscle mass as we age to support longevity and combat age-related conditions An unavoidable ...

Adult muscle stem cells, satellite cells (SCs), endow skeletal muscle with tremendous regenerative capacity. Upon injury, SCs activate, proliferate, and migrate as myoblasts to the injury site where ...

Background: Exercise intolerance is a cardinal symptom of heart failure contributing to poor quality of life and increased mortality. Extensive evidence shows skeletal muscle abnormalities underlie ...

This is a useful paper regarding the roles of brown adipose tissue and skeletal muscle in thermogenesis in mice, with potential significance for the field. The overall approach is innovative but on ...

In skeletal muscle, calcium is not only essential to stimulate and sustain their contractions but also for muscle embryogenesis, regeneration, energy production in mitochondria, and fusion. Different ...

Study uncovers a polyphenol's mechanism in enhancing mitochondrial calcium uptake and muscle bioenergetics during aging. Study: Mitochondrial calcium uptake declines during aging and is directly ...

Skeletal muscle actin mutations are well known to cause skeletal myopathies, but their role in cardiomyopathies has been controversial as skeletal muscle actin is only expressed at modest levels in ...
