Muscle origin of porcine satellite cells affects <i>in vitro</i> differentiation potential

Abstract excerpt

Post-natal muscle regeneration relies on the activation of tissue stem cells known as satellite cells, to repair damage following exercise trauma and disease. Satellite cells from individual muscles are known to be heterogeneous with regard to proliferation, fusion and transplantation abilities, although the muscle origin has rarely been considered pertinent to their differentiation capabilities. In this study we...
