Satellite cells are the "currency" for the muscle growth that is critical to meat production in many species, as well as to phenotypic distinctions in development at the level of species or taxa, and for human muscle growth, function and regeneration. Careful research on the activation and behaviour of satellite cells, the stem cells in skeletal muscle, including cross-species comparisons, has potential to reveal the mechanisms underlying pathological conditions in animals and humans, and to anticipate implications of development, evolution and environmental change on muscle function and animal performance.

is one of the three most frequently mutated genes in age-related clonal hematopoiesis (CH), alongside and (. CH can progress to myeloid malignancies including chronic monomyelocytic leukemia (CMML) and is also strongly associated with inflammatory cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in humans. DNMT3A and TET2 regulate DNA methylation and demethylation pathways, respectively, and loss-of-function mutations in these genes reduce DNA methylation in heterochromatin, allowing derepression of silenced elements in heterochromatin.

Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-3b, also known as growth differentiation factor (GDF)-10, belongs to the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β superfamily. Despite being named a BMP, BMP3b is considered as an intermediate between the TGFβ/activin/myostatin and BMP/GDF subgroups of the TGFβ superfamily. Myoblast differentiation is tightly regulated by various cytokines, including the TGFβ superfamily members.

Purpose: After peripheral nerve injury (PNI), prolonged denervation of the target muscle prevents adequate reinnervation even if the nerve is repaired. The aim of this work is to analyze the effect of intramuscular Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in a denervated muscle due to PNI.Materials and.

Cellular senescence has been implicated in the aging-related dysfunction of satellite cells, the resident muscle stem cell population primarily responsible for the repair of muscle fibres. Despite being in a state of permanent cell cycle arrest, these cells remain metabolically active and release an abundance of factors that can have detrimental effects on the cellular microenvironment. This phenomenon is known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and its metabolic profile is poorly characterized in senescent muscle.
