Methods for Accurate Assessment of Myofiber Maturity During Skeletal Muscle Regeneration
Adult skeletal muscle has a remarkable ability to regenerate. Regeneration of mature muscle fibers is dependent on muscle stem cells called satellite cells.

Macrophage-released ADAMTS1 promotes muscle stem cell activation. [PDF]
Coordinated activation of muscle stem cells (known as satellite cells) is critical for postnatal muscle growth and regeneration. The muscle stem cell niche is central for regulating the activation state of satellite cells, but the specific extracellular ...

Muscle Injuries Induce a Prostacyclin‐PPARγ/PGC1a‐FAO Spike That Boosts Regeneration
It is well‐known that muscle regeneration declines with aging, and aged muscles undergo degenerative atrophy or sarcopenia. While exercise and acute injury are both known to induce muscle regeneration, the molecular signals that help trigger muscle ...

Skeletal muscle regeneration is modulated by inflammation
Skeletal muscle regeneration is a complex process orchestrated by multiple steps. Recent findings indicate that inflammatory responses could play central roles in bridging initial muscle injury responses and timely muscle injury reparation.

Cytokines and chemokines as regulators of skeletal muscle inflammation: presenting the case of Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a severe inherited muscle disease that affects 1 in 3500 boys worldwide. Infiltration of skeletal muscle by inflammatory cells is an important facet of disease pathophysiology and is strongly associated with disease ...

Non Muscle Stem Cells and Muscle Regeneration [PDF]
Skeletal muscle of the vertebrate embryo originates from paraxial mesoderm (somites, somitomers and prechordal cephalic mesoderm) (Christ and Ordahl 1995) and is formed in discrete steps by different classes of myogenic progenitor cells (Cossu and Biressi 2005).
