Scientists are using in vitro skeletal muscle engineering to gain a better understanding of the complex genetic and environmental factors underlying diabetes, putting lab-grown, healthy skeletal ...

Researchers have provided an in-depth analysis of 3D in vitro biomimetic skeletal muscle tissue models, highlighting the great potential of bioprinting technology. Skeletal muscle can be functionally ...

Muscular dystrophies are devastating genetic diseases frequently leading to premature death of affected children or young adults. Spontaneous animal models have been described for the most frequent ...

Abnormally high blood sugar (glucose) levels can result in Type 2 diabetes when things go awry with the body's skeletal muscle, which plays a key role in regulating glucose. Scientists are using in ...

Skeletal muscle is the type of muscle that controls movement. Problems with these muscles can be minor, life-threatening, or ongoing problems that make it hard to perform basic daily activities.

If you’re in the market for a human skeleton model, it’s probably because you’re a teacher, professor, or student. These three-dimensional models are essential tools to help teach or learn all 206 ...

Isotopes are forms of a chemical element that contain the same number of protons and electrons but have a different number of neutrons. In general, the lighter isotope of an element tends to be more ...

Skeletal muscle can be functionally compromised by genetic myopathies, aging, traumatic injuries and tumor ablation. Under some conditions, such as severe traumatic injuries and volumetric muscle loss ...

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13, 2022 – Abnormally high blood sugar (glucose) levels can result in Type 2 diabetes when things go awry with the body's skeletal muscle, which plays a key role in regulating ...
