Physical activity is not only important for fitness but also for overall health. This is confirmed by a new study, which ...

Skeletal muscle (SKM ... and uptake mechanisms of EVs, particularly exosomes, comprehensively summarize the regulatory effects of SKM-EVs on the function of, which include myogenesis, muscle repair ...

Muscle twitching is a general term for muscle contractions. Your muscles are made up of fibers that your nerves control. Stimulating or damaging a nerve can cause muscle fibers to twitch.

Via a series of carefully placed electrodes, these useful devices “deliver electrical currents that signal the brain to activate nerves, causing muscle contractions at varying intensities ...

In this article, we develop a bionic multimodal compliant actuation system based on a scissor-epicyclic clutch mechanism that can provide fast twitch fibers (FTFs) contraction assistance, slow twitch ...

This manuscript aims to identify the pacemaker cells in the lymphatic collecting vessels - the cells that initiate the autonomous action potentials and contractions needed ... convincingly determine ...

Here, we generated the mCherry knock-in at titin’s Z-disk to study skeletal muscle development and remodeling. We find titin’s integration into the sarcomere tightly regulated and its unexpected ...

Understanding the mechanisms behind muscle strength decline is vital for improving ... plays a crucial role in regulating muscle function and coordinating muscle contractions (Rudolf et al., 2024).
