The film explores the muscular system of the human body, detailing the roles and functions of the three types of muscles: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Skeletal muscles, which are voluntary and work ...

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 ...

Skeletal muscle is the type of muscle that controls movement. Problems with these muscles can be minor, life-threatening, or ongoing problems that make it hard to perform basic daily activities.

Scientists at the University of Cincinnati and colleagues report that a regulatory protein found in skeletal muscle fiber may play an important role in the body’s fight or flight response when ...

Researchers at the University of Cincinnati say a regulatory protein found in skeletal muscle fiber may play an important role in the body's fight or flight response when encountering stressful ...

In a serendipitous discovery, UC San Diego researchers using cryo-EM technology captured the first visualizations of the 3-D structure of the muscle acetylcholine receptor in fetal and adult muscles.
