The formation of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is directed by reciprocal interactions between motor neurons and muscle fibers. Neuregulin (NRG) and Agrin from motor nerve terminals are both ...
Using powerful new visualization technologies, researchers have captured the first 3-D images of the structure of a key muscle receptor, providing new insights on how muscles develop across the animal ...
While NGF can be detected in periosteal osteoprogenitor cells in intact bone, NGF protein has also been detected in osteoprogenitor cells, marrow stromal cells, osteoblasts, some chondrocytes, ...
Scattered throughout skeletal muscle, the muscle spindles are composed of connective tissue capsules containing bundles of specialized muscle fibers called intrafusal fibers. Wrapped around the middle ...

Researchers confirm and explore the role of estrogen-related receptors in regulating energy production in muscle cells during exercise. The findings indicate that developing a drug to boost ...
Muscles and nerve fibers allow a person to move their body and enable the internal organs to function. There are more than 600 muscles in the human body. People also have different types of muscle. A ...
After complete transection of a nerve, good neuroanastomosis is needed to prevent the formation of fibrous connective tissues that form obstacles to nerve regeneration, and to facilitate repair of the ...
