Muscles can only contract and relax, so they always work in pairs called antagonistic muscles. Skeletal muscle is joined to bones. Its cells contract to make bones move and joints bend.

Skeletal muscle organoids help scientists bypass bottlenecks in satellite cell production for muscle regeneration research.

Using a primate model of skeletal muscle aging, the researchers identified hallmark features of muscle aging, including reduced muscle fiber size, shifts in fiber type composition, increased ...

An Osaka Metropolitan University medical research team aimed to investigate the effects of respiratory muscle dysfunction on clinical outcomes related to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
