Win-win in muscle research: Faster results and fewer laboratory animals thanks to new method
To study muscle diseases, scientists rely on the mouse as a model organism. Researchers at the University of Basel have now developed a new method that is not only faster and more efficient than conventional ones but also greatly reduces the number of experimental animals needed for studying the function of genes in muscle fibers.
Researchers Explore Role of MicroRNA in Development of Muscle Cells

Satellite Stem Cells Required for Normal Muscle Response to Exercise
A new study in mice published in the journal Function finds that a lack of satellite cells—stem cells that become muscle cells—alters gene networks needed for muscle adaptation to exercise. Researchers performed RNA sequencing on mice that were exercised by…
