Description:
Skeletal Muscle Biology and Therapeutics presents a timely and comprehensive view of one of the most rapidly evolving domains in modern biomedical research. More than just a mechanical tissue, skeletal muscle plays a crucial role in regulating movement, metabolism, overall body balance, and responses to physiological challenges. This book delves into essential topics such as muscle development, regeneration, inflammation, aging, metabolism, inter-organ communication, and new therapeutic approaches. By linking basic mechanisms to practical advances, it underscores how developments in molecular signaling, immunometabolism, mitochondrial biology, and regenerative medicine are transforming our understanding of muscle health and disease. By integrating fundamental concepts with clinically applicable insights, this book serves as a multidisciplinary resource for researchers, practitioners, and trainees within the life and health sciences. With a focus on both biological understanding and therapeutic possibilities, it acts as a valuable reference for those interested in skeletal muscle biology, muscle disorders, and future intervention methods.
