Myofibrillar myopathy type 6 (MFM6) is a rare genetic muscle disorder that leads to severe muscle weakness and a drastically shortened life expectancy due to a disruption in muscle protein regulation.

A series of recent physiology studies span from rare disease mechanisms to space-based biomedical advances. Findings include a new mouse model for myofibrillar myopathy type 6 that identifies ...

Space exploration activity has been increasing. In turn, researchers are more interested than ever in uncovering more about how space travel affects human health and the progression of disease.

DECEMBER 3, 2025—(BRONX, NY)—Two related studies published today in Nature Metabolism show that a specialized intracellular recycling mechanism—chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA)—is essential for ...

The mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction is a process that relies on calcium signaling. However, the physiological role of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through the ryanodine receptor ...

In work published in Nature Biotechnology, Rubin and his research group turned to 3D cell culture to take on the problem of generating sufficient satellite cells for regenerative therapies. 2 ...
