Our new study is now published in Advanced Science We show that skeletal muscle retains a molecular memory of disuse Young muscle shows transcriptional resilience Aged muscle shows exaggerated vulnerability advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Nice feature in @theatlantic.com by @bonnietsui.bsky.social Our lab’s latest study reveals that skeletal muscle doesn’t just remember growth- it also remembers inactivity. Repeated disuse leaves a molecular imprint that shapes future responses. www.theatlantic.com/health/2026/...

A Different Type of ‘Muscle Memory’

Repeated exercise, or wasting, can change the way key genes work.

First post on Blue Sky New pre-print! Does muscle remember disuse muscle wasting? Our new study shows skeletal muscle retains a molecular memory of disuse! Young muscle shows transcriptional resilience to repeated atrophy. Aged muscle shows exaggerated susceptibility. doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Played a small part in this project, but there some really interesting and cool findings from the Sharples Lab here. Focus on the memory of repeat muscle atrophy in human skeletal muscle 💪
