Working out doesn't just build muscle but, in later life, helps maintain a powerful cellular machine that repairs damaged ...

In context: Making robots more biologically compatible has been a challenge scientists have been tackling for years. Until now, they have primarily been able to create lab-grown muscle fibers that ...

Consider the delicate web of fat in a Wagyu steak. The "marbling" that makes carnivore connoisseurs swoon is a visual heuristic for quality flavor. Now, a new study in Cell Reports suggests the very ...

Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the first time, scientists have produced detailed maps of these fiber webs across ...

MXene nanoparticle scaffolds have been shown to stimulate muscle growth, making them a promising option to treat muscle loss and damage. Now, researchers explain the molecular mechanisms behind their ...

Researchers analyzed DNA methylation in human skeletal muscle and identified age-linked epigenetic markers that enable highly ...

From the moment we hit our early thirties, our bodies begin a subtle transformation that intensifies as we enter our senior years. This natural process, medically termed sarcopenia, involves the ...
