New research has identified the enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase 1 (GLUD1) as a new therapeutic target for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). In preclinical DMD mouse models, investigators demonstrated ...

Neuromuscular blockade is an essential component of modern anaesthetic practice, enabling muscle relaxation during surgery and facilitating procedures such as tracheal intubation and minimally ...

The neuromuscular junction—where nerves and muscle fibers meet—is an essential synapse for muscle contraction and movement. Improper function of these junctions can lead to the development of ...

Findings published in The American Journal of Pathology identify GLUD1 enzyme as a potential therapeutic target for muscle restoration through metabolic reprogramming, addressing clinically unmet need ...

Simultaneously achieving ultra-softness, ultrahigh sensitivity and mechanical resiliency is a major challenge for wearable electronics and soft machines. The soft yet wearable sensors with their ...

The neuromuscular junction - where nerves and muscle fibers meet - is an essential synapse for muscle contraction and movement. Improper function of these junctions can lead to the development of ...

Neuromuscular exercise was as effective as progressive resistance training (PRT) for helping people with osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip improve functional ability and reduce pain, a cluster-randomized ...

Magnesium, an essential mineral, serves as a cofactor in numerous enzymatic reactions critical for optimal physiological function. It plays a pivotal role in muscle function, nerve transmission, and ...
