These data, together with the analysis of two conditional Ezh2-null mouse strains, identified a critical proliferation phase in which Ezh2 activity is essential. Mice lacking Ezh2 in satellite cells exhibited decreased muscle growth, severely impaired regeneration...

... factors, including the determination genes Myf5 and Myod . The precise role of Myf5 in regulating quiescent muscle stem cells has remained elusive. Here we show that most, but not all, quiescent satellite cells express Myf5 protein, but at varying levels, and that resident Myf5 heterozygous muscle stem...

Compared with wild-type muscles, Rage −/− muscles exhibited increased numbers of basal SCs that were further increased in injured Rage −/− muscles following elevated myoblast asymmetric division...

Initially, larger fibres have more satellite cells than small fibres, but this advantage is lost as satellite cells...
