Artificial material that mimics muscles to aid muscle regeneration

Scientists have created an artificial material that mimics the tough, stretchy properties of muscle – a potential application as a "scaffold" to aid muscle regeneration. A US-Canadian team of researchhers engineered a polymer to reproduce the properties of titin - a protein which largely determines the elastic properties of muscle.
