A new single-nucleus atlas of mouse liver and skeletal muscle shows that individual cell types within these highly metabolic ...

Chick satellite cells from breast and leg muscles show opposite patterns of proliferation and differentiation when cultured ...

Losing muscle strength is a natural part of aging. At the core of this decline is a drop in the number of muscle stem cells (MuSCs), the specialized cells responsible for maintaining and regenerating ...

Scientists at UCLA discovered a surprising reason aging muscles heal more slowly. In older muscle stem cells, a protein called NDRG1 builds up and acts like a brake, slowing the cells’ ability to jump ...

Researchers Sumika Kato, Takeo Kubo, and Taro Fukazawa of the University of Tokyo have discovered that c1qtnf3, a secreting factor, namely a protein molecule that is secreted by a cell and influences ...

Researchers typically create organoid models for other biological systems with pluripotent stem cells, but the Harvard team began with readily accessible myoblasts, which satellite cells differentiate ...

CreERT2 knock-in mouse line whose tamoxifen-inducible reporter selectively labels microvascular endothelial cells in heart, ...

MIT engineers have built a paper-thin swimming robot powered by living muscle cells that respond to flashes of light, ...

In the event of a heart attack, the affected part of the heart muscle can no longer be supplied with oxygen and nutrients. As a result, the heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) die off. Scar tissue ...
