The neuromuscular junction is the point where motoneurons connect with skeletal muscle and is responsible for transmitting signals that dictate movement.

Neuromuscular disorders may affect the peripheral nerves, skeletal muscles, or neuromuscular junction (where the nerves and muscles meet).

All skeletal muscle contractions originate at the junction between motor neurons, which originate in the spinal cord and brainstem, and muscle fibers.

Oral presentation included data from MuSK-MG rat model depicting increases in muscle function and improvements in the structural integrity of the neuromuscular junction and innervation of skeletal ...

Find out what you need to know about skeletal muscle and discover its purpose and some types of muscle problems.

NMD Pharma has demonstrated that CIC-1 inhibition amplifies the muscle's responsiveness to weak signals, improving neuromuscular transmission and restores skeletal muscle function.
