New research from the University of Missouri School of Medicine found that a specific protein found in heart muscles regulates muscle contraction and may be related to certain heart diseases and ...

This new study is the first to identify specific "sweet taste" receptors, known as TAS1R2 and TAS1R3, on the surface of heart muscle cells. The work was presented at the 69th Biophysical Society ...

Moreover, while the deficiency in the ribosomal protein, known as RPL3L, altered translation dynamics for the entire tissue, its effects were most pronounced for proteins related cardiac muscle ...

The Kennedy College of Sciences, Department of Biological Sciences, invites you to attend a master’s thesis defense by Lindsey Howland on "Cardiomyopathy-linked mutation in tropomyosin alters ...

A study from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis provides evidence that the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 can invade and replicate inside heart muscle cells, causing cell ...

We have studied how cell architecture contributes to normal cell functions or dysfunction in disease for red blood cell shape and deformability, skeletal and cardiac muscle contraction, endothelial ...

Biosketch Meaghan started at UMass Lowell in the fall of 2019 where she joined Professor Jeffrey Moore's lab. Her research is focused on the mechanism of sarcomere proteins in heart muscle contraction ...

Sweet taste receptors in the heart: A new pathway for cardiac regulation New research shows that the heart can sense sweeteners and can increase the force of heart muscle contraction in response ...
