Muscle Stem Cells

New research explores the modulation of the immune system following the transplantation of muscle stem cells into a mouse model of inflammatory bowel disease

Inflammatory macrophages can promote the expansion of activated muscle stem cells during tissue repair by retaining cells in a proliferative and undifferentiated state.

The lack of dystrophin in muscle myofibers represents the central cause of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the most common inherited muscular dystrophy; however, evidence suggests that DMD may also be a stem cell disease.
