A decline in metabolism and endurance of skeletal muscle is commonly observed in obese patients, but the underlying mechanism is not well-understood. A research team led by Dr Chi Bun CHAN, Assistant ...
Numerous motor and structural proteins compose a highly ordered structure known as the sarcomere, the basic unit of muscle contraction in heart and skeletal muscles. Sarcomeric myosin heavy chain ...
Uteroplacental insufficiency and subsequent intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) affects postnatal metabolism. In juvenile rats, IUGR alters skeletal muscle mitochondrial gene expression and reduces ...
Scientists have established a link between gut microbes and muscle growth and function -- a finding that could open new doors to interventions for age-related skeletal muscle loss. The microorganisms ...

Animal muscle power sparks new biomaterials for farming, fashion & future medicine
Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned ...
Proteins are essential for body growth and muscle building. However, protein metabolism varies depending on the body’s internal biological clock. Therefore, it is important to know how distribution of ...
The major objective of our research is to identify the mechanisms that underlie the various effects of nutrient intake on the growth and function of skeletal muscle. In the perinatal period, skeletal ...
Interestingly, studies in various animal models have shown that time-restricted feeding — a natural non-pharmaceutical intervention — protects against obesity, aging and circadian disruption in ...
To investigate the mechanism behind skeletal muscle growth and regeneration, researchers bombarded zebrafish with chemical mutagen and screened for larvae with defective skeletal muscle structure.
