Abstract Skeletal muscle atrophy attributable to muscular inactivity has significant adverse functional consequences. While the initiating physiological event leading to atrophy seems to be the loss ...

Long-term exercise-specific neuroprotection in Spinal Muscular Atrophy-like mice. The Journal of Physiology, 2016; DOI: 10.1113/JP271361 ...

Scientists found genetic elements linked to hibernation in the human genome. Tapping into them could produce a new wave of medical treatments.

Age-related lobular involution, or physiological atrophy of the breast, is a process in which there is a reduction in the number and size of the acini per lobule and replacement of the intralobular ...

Objective To assess whether it is feasible to establish specific cut-off values able to discriminate ‘physiological’ or ‘pathological’ brain volume rates in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).

Bone defects can be the result of physiological atrophy, diseases, or medical intervention. Bone regeneration under electrical stimulation has been proven to be a promising approach in cell ...

Long-term exercise appears to be beneficial for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA)-like mice, suggesting a potential of active physiotherapy for patient care; according to a study published in the Journal ...
