New research shows that a network of subcellular structures similar to those responsible for propagating molecular signals that make muscles contract are also responsible for transmitting signals in ...
The new research reveals a novel mechanism for signal transmission in brain cells and helps answer an open question in neuroscience about how intracellular signals travel over long distances in ...
This influx of calcium at the contact site attracts and activates a kinase called CaMKII, a protein known to be important in ...
New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.
Want to do strength training while recovering from an injury? Go for isokinetic exercise, which can strengthen muscles, and assist in rehabilitation after an injury.
Other methods include a dynamometry which measures the force of a muscle contraction with a handheld device. Muscle strength grading is commonly used in people with neurologic conditions such as a ...
According to a 2020 study, three weeks of detraining did not affect muscle thickness, strength, or sports performance in adolescent athletes. According to Jesse Shaw, D.O., associate professor of ...
Fitness experts weigh in on the differences between concentric vs. eccentric exercise, and why both are important.
If your health goals include building muscle while losing fat and excess weight, you may wonder if you can build muscle while in a calorie deficit (when you eat fewer calories than your body uses).
The UK economy just about returned to growth in November after two months of contraction, the latest official figures show. Gross domestic product (GDP), the standard measure of an economy's value ...
