Muscle scraping, or instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM), is a therapeutic technique used to enhance muscle recovery, release tension, and improve mobility. It combines ancient ...

Researchers have developed a novel bioink that uses a sustained-release hormone to promote the growth and regeneration of 3D-printed muscle tissues. Their approach opens the door to developing new ...

Consider the delicate web of fat in a Wagyu steak. The "marbling" that makes carnivore connoisseurs swoon is a visual heuristic for quality flavor. Now, a new study in Cell Reports suggests the very ...

MXene nanoparticle scaffolds have been shown to stimulate muscle growth, making them a promising option to treat muscle loss and damage. Now, researchers explain the molecular mechanisms behind their ...

Stimulating muscle fibers with magnets causes them to grow in the same direction, aligning muscle cells within tissue. The findings offer a simpler, less time-consuming way for medical researchers to ...
