Cells repair damage to their outer membranes not by patching them as previously thought, but by using proteins called caveolins to remove the damaged regions by endocytosis.

A mouse model of human muscle myopathy is used to provide mechanistic insight, identify possible biomarkers of disease, and suggest possible therapeutic strategies to alleviate muscle weakness.
While Notch activation dedifferentiates newly differentiated muscle cells; it improves the function of muscle fiber as a niche-supporting cell of muscle stem cells.

A novel imaging method for measuring myofibril size/number reveals that the radial growth of muscle fibers that occurs in response to increased mechanical loading is largely mediated by myofibrillogenesis.
Physiological and biochemical studies show that the treatment of a transgenic mouse model carrying recessive Ryr1 mutations with a combination of class II histone deacetylase inhibitors and DNA methyl transferase inhibitors significantly improves skeletal muscle function.
Bulk and single-cell RNA-seq data demonstrated that muscle stem cells express low levels of canonical endothelial cell markers, including VEGFA receptors, and VEGFA-FLT1 pathway has a drastic effect on muscle stem cell survival through AKT1 in vitro and in vivo.

Maintenance of peripheral myonuclei patterning in skeletal myofibers is dependent on the regulation of microtubules dynamic and nuclei motion and is essential for proper neuromuscular junction integrity and mitochondria homeostasis.

CERS1 reduction in aging skeletal muscle contributes to impaired muscle function, myogenesis and increases inflammation and fibrosis, highlighting the significance of very long chain ceramides in age-related muscle homeostasis.

Single myofiber ATAC-Seq provides assessment of chromatin accessibility of a single myofiber without the confounding effects of other cell types present in skeletal muscle.
