This journal focuses on skeletal muscle research, investigating its development, regeneration, and maintenance. Studies explore molecular mechanisms underlying muscle function, disease pathogenesis, and therapeutic interventions. Topics include genetic disorders like muscular dystrophies, the impact of aging and metabolic conditions on muscle, and the role of cellular processes such as senescence, autophagy, and stem cell activity. Research also examines the effects of interventions like caloric restriction and gene delivery on muscle health.
