Using a robotic device, scientists tested whether massage improved muscle healing. Patrick Palej/EyeEm/Getty Images A new study finds that robot-delivered mechanotherapy decreased muscle damage and ...

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

Severe skeletal muscle injury, especially volumetric muscle loss, remains difficult to treat because effective regeneration requires safe, effective, and sustained intervention. Addressing this ...

The mechanism for muscle stem cells repair could inspire therapeutics for muscle loss caused by injury, aging and weight-loss medications.

Recent research from the University of Houston College of Pharmacy identifies key mechanisms of skeletal muscle regeneration and growth of muscles following resistance exercise. It's a finding that ...

The key to recovering from traumatic nerve injuries, like those sustained in motor vehicle accidents or gunshot wounds, may be a gene named for the land of everlasting youth in Irish folklore. In a ...

A new study reveals that vesicles packed with healthy mitochondria can supercharge tissue repair and combat chronic disease, paving the way for next-generation regenerative treatments. Study: ...

Muscular dystrophies represent a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by wasting and weakness of skeletal muscle. A novel mammalian gene, dysferlin — predicted to encode a product related to ...
