Our group has demonstrated that early skeletal muscle cells (satellite cells) are expressed on the surface of the CXCR4 receptor. We have also found that isolated from skeletal muscle by successive passages and cells having a cell sorter CXCR4 expression form in vitro in cultured myotubes characteristic. We therefore believe that these cells can be used in the process of regeneration of muscle tissue. Conducted in the present study aims at optimizing the methods of isolation for clinical purposes.

Plasticity nieembrionalnych stem cells is one of the most controversial issues of modern biology and experimental medicine . The idea that stem cells can be targeted tissue -differentiate , giving rise to stem cells of other tissues and organs, presents both hope to develop new therapeutic strategies in medicine regeracyjnej just using these cells for treatment , on the other, is an important argument in contributing to the slowdown research into the use of a similar order of embryonic cells .
