Rest assured, the hype is real. Hypertrophy is, by definition, the enlargement of an organ or tissue from the increase in ...

Building muscle isn’t just a matter of showing up and working out however and whenever you want. Looking in the mirror ...

Stelzer's research focuses on the molecular mechanisms that regulate cardiac muscle contraction, exploring how contractile proteins influence force generation and cross-bridge kinetics in the heart.

Generally, training-induced adaptations in skeletal muscle are seen as changes in contractile proteins, mitochondrial function, metabolic regulation, intracellular signalling, transcriptional ...

Adult human hearts possess limited regenerative abilities, so losing cardiomyocytes (CMs) after injury can result in contractile dysfunction ... the adherens junction protein N-Cadherin as a ...

The enzymes troponin I and troponin T are normal proteins that are important in the contractile apparatus of the cardiac myocyte. The proteins are released into the circulation between 3 and 4 ...

What was known though, is that these PVCs resemble structures used by bacteriophages, viruses that use contractile tails to inject their genetic material into bacteria. “We suspected that the PVCs ...

These hormones help regulate cell activity and lead to increased protein synthesis (specifically, actin and myosin, the ...
