For decades, treatment of peripheral artery disease has focused almost exclusively on restoring blood flow. Now, new research ...

Mrep accumulates in damaged muscle tissue and promotes muscle regeneration by acting on muscle satellite cells through activin A. While Mrep performs beneficial functions in normal muscle repair, in ...

BACKGROUND: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and its severe form, chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), significantly impair blood flow to the lower extremities, affecting millions of adults ...

Combining lab-grown muscle tissue with a series of flexible mechanical joints has led to the development of an artificial hand that can grip and make gestures. The breakthrough shows the way forward ...

We have identified a macrophage population "Mrep" that plays an essential role in muscle repair. However, in Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), Mrep functions as a pathogenic cell that ...

Stimulating muscle fibers with magnets causes them to grow in the same direction, aligning muscle cells within tissue. The findings offer a simpler, less time-consuming way for medical researchers to ...

Researchers found that GLP-1 medicines caused weight loss mainly through fat reduction, with only modest decreases in absolute muscle mass and no disproportionate loss of muscle function. In mice, ...
