Myokines and exosomes, originating from skeletal muscle, are shown to play a significant role in maintaining brain homeostasis. While exercise has been reported promote muscle secretion, little is known about the effects of neuronal innervation activity on yield molecular composition biologically active molecules muscle. As neuromuscular diseases disabilities associated with denervation impact metabolism, we hypothesize that firing may pivotal regulating secretion activities muscles. We...

One advantage of flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) compared to traditional rigid electronic circuits is their ability maintain electrical functionality despite repeated mechanical bending and twisting deformations. This characteristic allows conventional devices be re-engineered into FHE format for use in new applications. Conductor flexibility these enabled, part, by the printable metal-polymer composite inks that remain after curing. In this regard, are especially well suited sensing...
