While it is true that in some engineered tissues, such as those involving cardiac and skeletal muscle, electrical contractions can occur without incorporating conducting polymers-owing to the presence ...

Notably, interactions involving the integrin family and ICAM/VCAM, known for their roles in cell adhesion between blood leukocytes and brain endothelial cells, were particularly prominent in the ...

Here, we report a composite nanofiber biomaterial scaffold as a promising solution that closely mimics the extracellular matrix (ECM) to improve ... to visualize α- smooth muscle actin (α-SMA).

In search of other potential players, the researchers scoured a national database of human tissue samples and noticed an abundance of BCL6 in muscle cells -- a clue that it may play an important ...

We then explore an emerging area of cellular engineering which, despite rapid adoption in fields like immunology, remains relatively undeveloped in skeletal muscle therapeutics ... 2023). Cell-cell ...

If your health goals include building muscle while losing fat and excess weight, you may wonder if you can build muscle while in a calorie deficit (when you eat fewer calories than your body uses).
