First paper out from the lab: SIX1 PAX3 identify a progenitor for myogenic lineage commitment from hPSCs journals.biologists.com/dev/…

SIX1 PAX3 identify a progenitor for myogenic lineage commitment from hPSCs

Summary: This study defines specific steps to generate more robust and predictable myogenic cells from human pluripotent stem cells and explores the regulation of SIX1 in early myogenic commitment.

We collectively establish a spatial atlas of dystrophic muscle that provides profound insight on the regulation of macrophage and stromal interactions during impaired muscle regeneration and fibrosis. Special thanks to my colleagues and collaborators for their contributions.

Happy to share our last work in collaboration with Jeff Dilworth @EpigeneticsYOW on the epigenetic-regulated loss of myogenic identity in DMD muscle stem cells. All made with human muscle stem cells! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Epigenetic control of myogenic identity of human muscle stem cells in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

In Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), the absence of the subsarcolemmal dystrophin protein leads to repeated myofiber damages inducing cycles of muscle regeneration that is driven by muscle stem...
