Utrophin increase in muscle cells after transcriptional adaptation normalises cell function in Duchenne muscular dystrophy ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a rare hereditary disease that is associated with progressive muscle wasting. The ...

Excitable cells, such as fast-acting neurons and muscle cells, have specialized channels that open in response to a signal and permit rapid ion movement across the cell membrane. The opening of ...
