Somatic mutagenesis in satellite cells associates with human skeletal muscle aging
Aging skeletal muscle shows declining numbers and activity of satellite cells. Here, Franco et al. show that in satellite cells of the human leg muscle vastus lateralis, somatic mutations accumulate with age and that these mutations become enriched in exons and promoters of genes involved in muscle...
