GALVESTON, Texas — When the Apollo 11 crew got back from the moon 40 years ago this week, they showed no ill effects from seven days spent in weightlessness. But as American astronauts and Soviet ...
Muscle-on-chip systems are three-dimensional human muscle cell bundles cultured on collagen scaffolds. A Stanford University research team sent some of these systems to the International Space Station ...
In simple terms, stem cells that don’t build up enough of the NDRG1 protein eventually die off. What remains is a group of cells that repair muscle more slowly but are tougher and more resilient, able ...
Skeletal muscle stem cells in hibernating Syrian hamsters preserve their ability to function by suppressing their activation ...
WASHINGTON (AP) — Scientists implanted thin sheets of scaffolding-like material from pigs into a few young men with disabling leg injuries — and say the experimental treatment coaxed the men’s own ...

New research shows hibernating mammals protect muscle stem cells by suppressing activation, inflammation, and regeneration during cold, inactive periods.
