Functional micropeptides can be concealed within RNAs that appear to be noncoding. We
discovered a conserved micropeptide, which we named myoregulin (MLN), encoded by a …

Muscle contraction depends on release of Ca 2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) and
reuptake by the Ca 2+ adenosine triphosphatase SERCA. We discovered a putative muscle-…

Credit cycles have been a characteristic of advanced economies for over 100 years. On
average, a sustained pick‐up in the ratio of credit to GDP has been highly correlated with …

COVID-19 emerged in November 2019 leading to a global pandemic that has not only
resulted in widespread medical complications and loss of life, but has also impacted global …

Background Wrist-worn smart watches and fitness monitors (ie, wearables) have become
widely adopted by consumers and are gaining increased attention from researchers for their …

How does bank profitability vary with interest rates? We present a model of a monopolistically
competitive bank subject to repricing frictions and test the model's predictions using a …

Regeneration of adult skeletal muscle following injury occurs through the activation of satellite
cells, an injury-sensitive muscle stem cell population that proliferates, differentiates, and …

Researchers have increasingly begun to use consumer wearables or wrist-worn smartwatches
and fitness monitors for measurement of cardiovascular psychophysiological processes …

Excitation–contraction (EC) coupling comprises events in muscle that convert electrical
signals to Ca 2+ transients, which then trigger contraction of the sarcomere. Defects in these …

While many hydrogels are elastic networks crosslinked by covalent bonds, viscoelastic
hydrogels with adaptable crosslinks are increasingly being developed to better recapitulate time …
