New research describes how nerve cells and muscle cells communicate through electrical signals during development -- a phenomenon known as bioelectricity. The communication, which takes place via ...

University of Delaware’s Mona Batish is a molecular biologist. She studies circular RNAs formed as a result of so-called molecular mistakes that occur when a strand of RNA — the ribonucleic acid that ...

An analysis of MRI scans using artificial intelligence resulted in the production of a reference growth standard and a fast, reproducible way to measure indicators of lean muscle mass in developing ...

Researchers have identified a protein that’s critical to the development of skeletal muscle mass and strength and the tissue’s ability to metabolize glucose. They say their findings may lead to ...

Walking represents one of humanity’s most fundamental movements, yet its potential for muscle development remains surprisingly underappreciated. While often relegated to the category of light cardio ...

Muscle loss is a common part of aging. For people over 60, maintaining or developing muscles can help prevent falls, maintain mobility, and prevent loss of function. This may be possible through ...

Forget the gym grind; longer rest between sets significantly boosts muscle growth and strength, especially for trained individuals. Research reveals that 3-5 minutes of recovery nearly doubles ...
