Muscle Optogenetics

Muscle Optogenetics is a specialized application of optogenetic technology that enables precise, light-dependent control of muscle cell activity, distinguishing it from optogenetic applications in neural or other excitable tissues by targeting contractile function in skeletal, cardiac, or smooth muscle systems.
