A novel approach for the isolation and long-term expansion of pure satellite cells based on ice-cold treatment

Abstract Satellite cells (SCs) are muscle stem cells capable of regenerating injured muscle. The study of their functional potential depends on the availability of methods for the isolation and expansion of pure SCs with preserved myogenic properties after serial passages in vitro. Here, we describe...
