Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Loss of adult stem cell function during aging contributes to impaired tissue regeneration. Here, we tested the aging-related decline in regeneration potential of adult stem cells residing in the skeletal muscle. METHODS: We isolated muscle-derived stem/progenitor cells (MDSPCs) from progeroid Zmpste24-deficient mice (Zmpste24(-/-)) with accelerated aging phenotypes to investigate whether mutation in...
