Identification and Characterization of the Dermal Panniculus Carnosus Muscle Stem Cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
The dermal Panniculus carnosus (PC) muscle is important for wound contraction in lower mammals and represents an interesting model of muscle regeneration due to its high cell turnover. The resident satellite cells (the bona fide muscle stem cells) remain poorly characterized. Here we analyzed PC satellite cells with regard to developmental origin and purported function. Lineage tracing shows that they originate in Myf5(+), Pax3/Pax7(+) cell populations. Skin and muscle wounding increased PC myofiber turnover, with the satellite cell progeny being involved in muscle regeneration but with no detectable contribution to the wound-bed myofibroblasts. Since hematopoietic stem cells fuse to PC myofibers in the absence of injury, we also studied the contribution of bone marrow-derived cells to the PC satellite cell compartment, demonstrating that cells of donor origin are capable of repopulating the PC muscle stem cell niche after irradiation and bone marrow transplantation but may not fully acquire the relevant myogenic commitment.

Long-Lasting Muscle Thinning Induced by Infrared Irradiation Specialized With Wavelengths and Contact Cooling: A Preliminary Report
OBJECTIVE Infrared (IR) irradiation specialized with wavelengths and contact cooling increases the amount of water in the dermis to protect the subcutaneous tissues against IR damage; thus, it is applied to smooth forehead wrinkles. However, this treatment consistently induces brow ptosis. Therefore, we investigated whether IR irradiation induces muscle thinning. METHODS Rat central back tiss...

OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of exogenous vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on skin graft survival in Sprague-Dawley rats. DESIGN Dorsal full-thickness skin grafts were harvested from 18 Sprague-Dawley rats. To simulate human full-thickness skin grafts, the panniculus carnosus muscle was removed from the undersurface of each graft. The recipient beds were delivered subfascial injec...
متن کاملSignificant differences among skeletal muscles in the incorporation of bone marrow-derived cells.
While numerous reports indicate that adult bone marrow-derived cells can contribute to nonhematopoietic tissues in vivo in adult mice, the generally low frequency of these events has made it difficult to study the molecular and cellular pathways involved. Here, we show a 1000-fold range in the frequency with which diverse skeletal muscles incorporate adult bone marrow-derived cells in adult mic...
متن کاملFluorescence-labeled reporter gene in transgenic mice provides a useful tool for investigating cutaneous innervation.
B6.Cg-Tg(Thy1-YFP)16Jrs/J transgenic mice were created to express the yellow fluorescent protein gene driven by a mouse Thy1 promoter that labeled motor and sensory neurons such that individual nerves could be followed. These mice were used to identify nerves in the skin that innervate the erector pili and panniculus carnosus muscle. Whole mounts demonstrated yellow fluorescent protein expressi...
متن کاملThe Vasodilator Effect of a Cream Containing 10% Menthol and 15% Methyl Salicylate on Random-Pattern Skin Flaps in Rats
BACKGROUND It is still difficult to prevent partial or full-thickness flap necrosis. In this study, the effects of a cream containing menthol and methyl salicylate on the viability of randompattern skin flaps were studied. METHODS Forty female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into two equal groups. Caudally based dorsal random-pattern skin flaps were elevated, including the panniculus carnosu...
