Skeletal muscle satellite cells and adult myogenesis

F Le Grand, MA Rudnicki - Current opinion in cell biology, 2007 - Elsevier
Research focusing on the canonical adult myogenic progenitor, the skeletal muscle satellite
cell, is still an ever-growing field 46 years from their initial description. Recent publications …

Wnt signaling in skeletal muscle development and regeneration

F Girardi, F Le Grand - Progress in molecular biology and translational …, 2018 - Elsevier
Wnt is a family of signaling molecules involved in embryogenesis, adult tissue repair, and
cancer. They activate canonical and noncanonical Wnt signaling cascades in target cells. …

Satellite cell self-renewal

L Giordani, A Parisi, F Le Grand - Current topics in developmental biology, 2018 - Elsevier
Adult skeletal muscle is endowed with regenerative potential through partially recapitulating
the embryonic developmental program. Upon acute injury or in pathological conditions, …

[HTML][HTML] Asymmetric self-renewal and commitment of satellite stem cells in muscle

S Kuang, K Kuroda, F Le Grand, MA Rudnicki - Cell, 2007 - cell.com
Satellite cells play a central role in mediating the growth and regeneration of skeletal muscle.
However, whether satellite cells are stem cells, committed progenitors, or dedifferentiated …

Muscle injury activates resident fibro/adipogenic progenitors that facilitate myogenesis

AWB Joe, L Yi, A Natarajan, F Le Grand, L So… - Nature cell …, 2010 - nature.com
Efficient tissue regeneration is dependent on the coordinated responses of multiple cell types.
Here, we describe a new subpopulation of fibro/adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) resident in …

[PDF][PDF] Wnt7a activates the planar cell polarity pathway to drive the symmetric expansion of satellite stem cells

F Le Grand, AE Jones, V Seale, A Scimè, MA Rudnicki - Cell stem cell, 2009 - cell.com
Satellite cells in skeletal muscle are a heterogeneous population of stem cells and committed
progenitors. We found that quiescent satellite stem cells expressed the Wnt receptor Fzd7 …

Pax7 activates myogenic genes by recruitment of a histone methyltransferase complex

IW McKinnell, J Ishibashi, F Le Grand, VGJ Punch… - Nature cell …, 2008 - nature.com
Satellite cells purified from adult skeletal muscle can participate extensively in muscle
regeneration and can also re-populate the satellite cell pool, suggesting that they have direct …

[PDF][PDF] High-dimensional single-cell cartography reveals novel skeletal muscle-resident cell populations

…, A Corneau, S Tajbakhsh, TH Cheung, F Le Grand - Molecular cell, 2019 - cell.com
Adult tissue repair and regeneration require stem-progenitor cells that can self-renew and
generate differentiated progeny. Skeletal muscle regenerative capacity relies on muscle …

[PDF][PDF] Autocrine and paracrine angiopoietin 1/Tie-2 signaling promotes muscle satellite cell self-renewal

R Abou-Khalil, F Le Grand, G Pallafacchina, S Valable… - Cell stem cell, 2009 - cell.com
Mechanisms governing muscle satellite cell withdrawal from cell cycle to enter into quiescence
remain poorly understood. We studied the role of angiopoietin 1 (Ang1) and its receptor …

p38-γ–dependent gene silencing restricts entry into the myogenic differentiation program

MA Gillespie, F Le Grand, A Scimè, S Kuang… - Journal of Cell …, 2009 - rupress.org
The mitogen-activated protein kinase p38-γ is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and is
associated with the dystrophin glycoprotein complex; however, its function remains unclear. …
