Building functional human muscle in the laboratory has long been a goal of regenerative medicine, but one stubborn obstacle ...

Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have shown that the protein Musashi-2 (Msi2) plays a key role in the regulation of mass and metabolic processes in skeletal muscle. They ...

Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned structure of animal skeletal muscle, producing materials that resist ...

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 mechanism for muscle stem cells repair could inspire therapeutics for muscle loss caused by injury, aging and weight-loss medications.
