Summary:
Researchers have successfully used gene therapy to accelerate muscle regeneration in animas with muscle damage. This technique may be a novel and effective approach for improving skeletal muscle healing, particularly for serious sports-related injuries.
Commentary: Hopefully this approach to muscle rengerative will have successful clinical applications for human neuro-muscular diseases such as A.L.S. and Muscular Dystrophy.
