Direct generation of a homogeneous population of skeletal myoblasts from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and formation of three-dimensional contractile...

A recent study conducted at The Westmead Institute for Medical Research has shed light on the role of vitamin D in muscle cells.

Novel human iPS cell derived and primary skeletal muscle stem cells show that abnormal ACVR1 activation increases osteogenic/ECM gene expression and impairs...

Innate immune cells including macrophages and neutrophils have unique properties that allows them to quickly accumulate in large numbers at the site of...

A research team has found that specific immune cells can connect with muscle fibers in a lightning-fast, neuron-like way to promote healing. These cells...

Researchers are reporting new technology that not only repairs heart muscle cells in mice but also regenerates them following a heart attack, or myocardial...

In proof-of-concept experiments, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have successfully cultivated human muscle stem cells capable of renewing themselves...

Researchers have identified a new and relatively abundant pool of stem cells in the heart. The findings show that these heart cells have the capacity for...

-In Press 05/2021- JSES Reviews, Reports & TechniquesThe incidence of reinjury after treatment of rotator cuff tears (RCTs) remains very high despite the...

Microgravity speeds up changes to muscle mass, making it possible to study what’s happening and paving the way for treatments.

Skeletal muscle satellite cells are considered to play a crucial role in muscle fiber maintenance, repair and remodelling. Our knowledge of the role of satel...

Murine bone marrow (BM) cells have been shown to undergo myogenic differentiation and participate in muscle repair in different muscle regeneration models. In...

New research has identified rogue cells -- namely brain and muscle cells -- lurking within kidney organoids. Such cells make up only 10 to 20 percent of an...

"It's taken years of trial and error, making educated guesses, and taking baby steps to finally produce functioning human muscle from pluripotent stem cells..."

This study describes a novel path to the activation of smooth muscle cells (SMC) by the IL-6/soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R) system. Human vascular SMC...
