A new 3D model shows that Duchenne gene therapy can repair muscle fibers but fails to shut down the signals that drive scarring.

Taking collagen supplements regularly supports bone and muscle health in adults, improving strength and quality of life.

Researchers identified a molecular pathway that can limit muscle repair, a finding that may guide future muscular dystrophy treatments.

Findings published in The American Journal of Pathology identify GLUD1 enzyme as a potential therapeutic target for muscle restoration through metabolic reprogramming, addressing clinically unmet need ...

A person may inherit the genetic changes responsible for muscular dystrophy. These genetic changes can also occur due to spontaneous genetic mutations. In either case, the disease is not preventable.

Mutations that lead to muscle atrophy can be repaired with the gene editor CRISPR-Cas9. A team led by ECRC researcher Helena Escobar has now introduced the tool into human muscle stem cells for the ...

In a recent review published in the journal Cell Metabolism, researchers elucidated mechanisms and evaluated therapies for impaired skeletal muscle regeneration in diabetes, identifying research gaps ...

During hibernation, brown bears spend up to six months lying almost completely still, without eating, drinking or exercising.
