The Science Teacher is an award-winning, peer-reviewed, practitioners' journal for grade 9-12 teachers, university faculty responsible for teacher preparation, and state and district science ...

Scientists are using in vitro skeletal muscle engineering to gain a better understanding of the complex genetic and environmental factors underlying diabetes, putting lab-grown, healthy skeletal ...

Muscle atrophy is a primary characteristic of both sarcopenia and cachexia, significantly impacting physical function and quality of life. This figure illustrates the multifaceted causes of muscle ...

With the intensification of global population aging, muscle atrophy, characterized by the loss of muscle mass and function, has become an important health issue affecting the elderly. Researchers have ...

This genetic model suggests otherwise, indicating that coupled gating or other mechanical interactions, rather than CICR, drive activation of uncoupled RyR1 channels. Interestingly, the researchers ...

Scientists have discovered how exercise protects aging muscles by suppressing DEAF1, a molecule they identified as a driver ...
