    Cell Stem Cell: Researchers at CNIC, UPF, ICREA, CIBERNED and CIBERFES identify a mechanism that maintains mitochondria function in muscle stem cells and that can be stimulated in old age

    The finding provides a basis for mitigating the loss of muscle regenerative capacity in elderly people
    Daño local en las fibras musculares tras el ejercicio. Visualización del daño local en fibras de músculo esquelético (soleous y gastro) de ratón joven tras el ejercicio, mediante la tinción con marcadores de daño local como Filamina C (verde) y Evans Blue (rojo), y los núcleos (en azul) de fibras.
