It's exciting to discover that these tiny fibers can also effectively help create artificial tissues and, possibly, whole organs in the future." The authors demonstrated the biofabrication of ...

Identified that global, regional, and local inputs contribute to nuclear size regulation in multinucleated skeletal muscle fibers. Demonstrated that properly placed nuclei are critical for healthy ...

The team found that MCT1 regulates mitochondrial biogenesis of skeletal muscle and exercise activity, and the deletion of the ...

The pursuit for the elixir of eternal youth has fascinated scientists for centuries. Yet, natural ageing—marked by the ...

A new bioreactor system uses hollow fibers to deliver nutrients to lab-grown tissue, enabling scalable cultured chicken meat ...

These are the first F-V curves built for different types of team sports athletes taking into account their muscle fibre type composition and reconcile sports medicine tests with knowledge obtained ...

Nugget-sized chunks of chicken with the texture of real meat have been grown in a lab for the first time. Japanese scientists ...

Contractile proteins are proteins that mediate sliding of contractile fibres (contraction) of a cell’s cytoskeleton, and of cardiac and skeletal muscle. Heart and muscle contractile fibres ...

We’re using semipermeable hollow fibers, which mimic blood vessels in their ability to deliver nutrients to the tissues,” explains senior author Shoji ...

Widespread neuronal mitochondrial complex I (CI) deficiency was recently reported to be a characteristic in a subgroup of individuals with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). Here, we sought to ...
