Speaking of aging, there is a physiological change that is often overlooked by people, but it is closely related to the health and even lifespan of the elderly-that is, the loss of muscle.
But with the increase of age, the number and function of satellite cells will gradually decrease.
As the name suggests, stem cells can differentiate into many types of cells in our body.
A recent study published in "Stem Cell Research & Therapy" found that using a small artificial molecule called givinostat to induce stem cells to differentiate into muscle progenitor cells or muscle cells can promote muscle repair and regeneration.
The National Institutes of Health provided a grant of US$1.
