  <title><![CDATA[Stem cell-loaded hydrogel boosts healing process of aging muscles]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>It&#39;s an unfortunate fact of life that as we get older, our cells gradually lose the ability to heal themselves. Thankfully, one part of that might be treatable in the near future. <a href="http://biosci.gatech.edu/people/young-jang">Young Jang</a> of the <a href="http://www.biosci.gatech.edu/">School of Biological Sciences</a> and researchers have developed a hydrogel that holds muscle stem cells.The team says this could treat injuries in the elderly and people with muscular dystrophy.
