Abstract excerpt
We have previously demonstrated that CD34(+) cells isolated from fetal mouse muscles are an interesting source of myogenic progenitors. In the present work, we pinpoint the tissue location of these CD34(+) cells using cell surface and phenotype markers. In order to identify the myogenic population, we next purified different CD34(+) subsets, determined their expression of relevant lineage-related genes, and...
