"Besides muscle fibers, muscle tissue also contains ... The importance of communication between cells in the organism's adaptation to any kind of stress is well-established in the scientific ...

Overall, two processes appear to be involved: hypertrophy, or the enlargement of cells, and neural adaptations that enhance nerve-muscle interaction. Muscle cells subjected to regular bouts of ...

Nathaniel Jenkins and his colleagues may have uncovered some answers by measuring how the brain and motor neurons -- cells that send electrical signals to muscle -- adapt to high- vs. low-load ...

What are Neural Adaptations to Strength Training? When most people think about building strength, they only think about muscle growth. Lifting weights triggers muscle fibers to adapt by increasing ...

This cell does not appear to be a stem cell, but rather a specialized cardiomyocyte, or heart muscle cell, that can divide, which the majority of cardiomyocytes cannot do," said Dr. Hesham Sadek ...

took muscle and blood samples over seven days from 21 critically ill patients (ie those with two or more organs failing) in intensive care, and 12 healthy people, comparing cells' behaviour.

Specialised animal cells include red blood cells, sperm, eggs, nerve cells, muscle cells, ciliated cells, and villi. Get it, lark? Anyone…? Okay let's move on. An animal cell is made of three ...

Stem cells may help regenerate heart muscle damaged after heart attacks. Feb. 14, 2012— -- A promising stem cell therapy approach could soon provide a way to regenerate heart muscle damaged ...

The nerve cell is covered with a fatty sheath, which insulates the nerve cell and speeds up the nerve impulse. Muscle cells contain filaments of protein that slide over each other to cause muscle ...
