Factors Regulating or Regulated by Myogenic Regulatory Factors in Skeletal Muscle Stem Cells
MyoD, Myf5, myogenin, and MRF4 (also known as Myf6 or herculin) are myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs). MRFs are regarded as master transcription factors that are upregulated during myogenesis and influence stem cells to differentiate into myogenic ...

Skeletal muscle atrophy can occur as a consequence of immobilization and/or starvation in the majority of vertebrates studied. In contrast, hibernating mammals are protected against the loss of muscle mass despite long periods of inactivity and lack of ...

Skeletal muscle in health and disease
Skeletal muscle fibres are multinucleated cells that contain postmitotic nuclei (i.e. they are no longer able to divide) and perform muscle contraction.

Neuromuscular disorders are a heterogeneous group of acquired or hereditary conditions that affect striated muscle function. The resulting decrease in muscle strength and motility irreversibly impacts quality of life.

Regeneration competent satellite cell niches in rat engineered skeletal muscle
Satellite cells reside in defined niches and are activated upon skeletal muscle injury to facilitate regeneration. Mechanistic studies of skeletal muscle regeneration are hampered by the inability to faithfully simulate satellite cell biology in vitro ...

Roles of nonmyogenic mesenchymal progenitors in pathogenesis and regeneration of skeletal muscle
Adult skeletal muscle possesses a remarkable regenerative ability that is dependent on satellite cells. However, skeletal muscle is replaced by fatty and fibrous connective tissue in several pathological conditions.

Sarcopenia is a common and progressive skeletal muscle disorder characterized by atrophic muscle fibres and contractile dysfunction. Accumulating evidence shows that the number and function of satellite cells (SCs) decline and become impaired during ...

Skeletal muscle satellite cells (SC) are instrumental in maintenance of muscle fibres, the adaptive responses to exercise, and there is an age‐related decline in SC. A spatial relationship exists between SC and muscle fibre capillaries.
