A common somitic origin for embryonic muscle progenitors and satellite cells

Article Abstract:

The fate of dermomyotome cells from the early stages of somite differentiation through to hatching is traced to identify the origin of embryonic muscle progenitors and satellite cells. It is concluded that embryonic muscle progenitors and satellite cells share common origin that can be traced back to the dermomyotome.
