ITHACA, New York, Dec. 2 -- Cornell University issued the following news:
As muscles age, their cells lose the ability to regenerate and heal after injury. Cornell Engineering researchers have created the most comprehensive portrait to date of how that change, in mice, unfolds over time and across the complicated architecture of muscle tissue.
"The fundamental question that drove the initial study was really a question that had perplexed the skeletal muscle biology . . .
