Amsbio has expanded its Skeletal Muscle Differentiation Kits, enabling reproducible conversion of pluripotent stem cells into ...

Getting DNA into a living cell sounds simple, until you remember the cell’s outer membrane acts like a guarded wall. DNA ...

Muscles make up nearly 40% of the human body and power every move we make, from a child's first steps to recovery after injury. For some, however, muscle development goes awry, leading to weakness, ...

The system, known as MD-ES (muscle defect-electrical stimulation), may help solve one of the major hurdles in sports medicine: providing sustained electrical stimulation to deep-tissue injuries ...

Patency of the rhabdosphincter is a crucial determinant of continence after radical prostatectomy. In contrast to other interventions that treat postprostatectomy incontinence, injection of autologous ...

Autologous myoblasts can be transplanted into infarcted myocardial tissue safely, with possible benefits on cardiac function, a 4-year pilot study has shown. Following on from previous studies which ...

Muscle stem cells repurpose the tenogenic factor Scx to establish a muscle-specific transcriptional program that sustains stem cell expansion, migration, differentiation, fusion, self-renewal, and ...
