Scientists identify a signaling pathway that triggers muscle fatigue in response to nervous system inflammation or infections ...

Patients with degenerative diseases that attack skeletal muscle tissues, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, may soon benefit from novel stem cell therapies. A study has demonstrated how new ...

Most cells share features such as having a nucleus, a cell membrane, cytoplasm and mitochondria ... like that in the anus. Skeletal muscle is joined to bones. Its cells contract to make bones ...

Researchers have discovered a mechanism in our cells that is essential to energy ... The mitochondrial mRNA-stabilizing protein SLIRP regulates skeletal muscle mitochondrial structure and ...

Scientists have identified that the decrease of certain mitochondrial proteins, specifically MFN2, is linked to structural changes in skeletal muscle mitochondria, contributing to sarcopenia.

Mechanistically, researchers proposed that lactate transport in skeletal muscle fibers depended on two shuttles, "cell-cell ...
