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

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 ...

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 ...

Scientists Find A Gut Microbe That Could Help Aging Muscles Stay Strong In A Nutshell Scientists identified a gut bacterium, ...

Researchers have made significant strides in biomaterial technology and rehabilitation medicine. They've developed a novel approach to healing muscle injury by employing 'injectable tissue prosthesis' ...

Sometimes nature provides the best blueprints for building effective robots. It also can provide the best material. Billions of years of natural selection has built some pretty impressive machinery, ...

Mrep accumulates in damaged muscle tissue and promotes muscle regeneration by acting on muscle satellite cells through ...

When a house is hit by a hurricane, you must first remove the damaged parts before reconstruction can begin. The same applies to our muscles after injuries – and now researchers from Aarhus University ...

A groundbreaking development has come from researchers at the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan. They've created a biohybrid hand, a fusion of lab-grown muscle tissue and mechanical ...
