Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a way to treat aging-related muscular atrophy using regenerative medicine. Conventional methods to implant myoblasts, precursors to muscle ...

As we age, the muscles we rely on for daily activities tend to become less reliable. With enough decline, even normal movements such as getting out of bed become risky. Low muscle mass in the ...

Aortic aneurysm is characterized by enlargement of the aorta, as well as vascular inflammation and damage to the extracellular matrix.

A new study reveals that vesicles packed with healthy mitochondria can supercharge tissue repair and combat chronic disease, paving the way for next-generation regenerative treatments. Study: ...

New research has uncovered a complex interplay between extracellular matrix (ECM) structure and the transcriptional responses of cancer cells, showing how they alter their gene expression to ‘escape’ ...

The numerous cells that make up mammalian tissues are surrounded by an intricate network of proteins known as the extracellular matrix (ECM). Together, these proteins provide cells with a structural ...
