The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a specialised synapse responsible for translating neuronal signals into muscle contractions, forming the basis of voluntary movement and postural control ...

Follistatin-344 (FS-344), a glycoprotein variant, has emerged as a focal point in scientific research due to its potential ...

Both antibodies are linked to separate proteins that play key roles in limiting skeletal muscle growth. Trevogrumab blocks myostatin, also known as GDF8, and garetosmab blocks activin A.

Pediatric skeletal muscle growth is a continuous developmental process spanning ... who are already familiar with their journal's scope, ethos, and publishing model. All other topics are guest edited ...

Rhabdomyolysis, also known as rhabdo, describes a serious medical condition. It occurs when damaged muscle releases substances into the blood that can damage the heart and kidneys. Common causes ...

Despite increased knowledge of hamstring muscle injuries, the incidence has not diminished. We now know that not all hamstring injuries are the same and that certain types of injuries require ...

The area where a neuron transmits a signal to a muscle cell is called the neuromuscular junction. An electrical signal travels down the neuron. When it reaches the neuromuscular junction, it causes ...

Designing scaffolds that can mimic native skeletal muscle tissue and induce 3D cellular alignment and elongated myotube formation remains an ongoing challenge for skeletal muscle tissue engineering.

Describes a closed-loop functional neuromuscular stimulation system that uses afferent neural activity from muscle spindle fibers as feedback for controlling position of the ankle joint. Ankle ...
