«For several years, we have been
studying myogenesis, a process by which muscles are formed during embryonic development,» says Jean - François Côté, PhD, Director of the Cytoskeletal Organization and Cell Migration research unit at the IRCM.
In this
study, Chazaud et al., evidenced that endothelial cells (ECs) and myogenic progenitor cells (MPCs) interacted to couple
myogenesis and angiogenesis during skeletal muscle regeneration.
