identify the adhesion G-protein coupled receptor (aGPCR) GPR133 (also known as ADGRD1) as an androgen membrane receptor for 5α-dihydrotestosterone (5α-DHT) that modulates muscle strength.

Conventional methods to implant myoblasts, precursors to muscle fiber, require prior scarring for the new cells to graft properly. By adding extracellular matrix (ECM) fluid into the implant ...
