Efficient myogenic and lipogenic transdifferentiation of chicken fibroblasts in 3D culture produces meat with precisely controlled levels of intramuscular fat and extracellular matrix.

Mutation E334Q in cytoskeletal γ-actin leads to impaired interaction of actin filaments with actin-binding proteins belonging to the myosin and ADF/cofilin families.

A computer model predicts different mechanisms of blood pressure regulation and effective hypertensive therapy for males and females, thereby serving as a foundational tool for improved treatment precision.

Elevated levels of ectopic fat and a decreased number of oxidative insulin-sensitive type I muscle fibers in skeletal muscle could lead to insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Mesoderm-derived enteric neurons born in the post-natal vertebrates drive maturation and aging of the enteric nervous system.

Mfn2 depletion upregulates cytosolic Ca²⁺ in mouse fibroblast cells, leading to RhoA and nonmuscle myosin II overactivation and a prominent peripheral actin band structure, which is dependent on the contractile force on the cell–substrate interface.

Gut microbiota reshaped by myostatin gene variation has a positive effect on skeletal muscle growth by activating GPR43 through valeric acid, as a metabolite of gut microbiota.
