The mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction is a process that relies on calcium signaling. However, the physiological role of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through the ryanodine receptor ...
A team of researchers has developed a simple lab-based system for growing human muscle cells that are capable of vigorously contracting. A team of researchers at Tohoku University have developed a ...
Using powerful new visualization technologies, researchers have captured the first 3-D images of the structure of a key muscle receptor, providing new insights on how muscles develop across the animal ...
For people with paralysis or amputation, neuroprosthetic systems that artificially stimulate muscle contraction with electrical current can help them regain limb function. However, despite many years ...
A new study by researchers at Yale and Johns Hopkins University has discovered how asthmatic bronchial spasms — muscle contractions in the airway that cause difficulty breathing in asthma patients— ...
The findings could have implications for robotics, prosthetics and energy efficient machines. John McGrath and José Alvarado with HillBot, a robot designed to test parameters of muscle strength and ...
