Skeletal Muscle Repair and Regeneration

Skeletal muscle is the most abundant tissue of our body. Apart from its essential role in locomotion, it is also the body's main store of carbohydrate and protein as well as being one of the principal generators of heat. Its proper maintenance and function are, therefore, essential. A severe ac...
