Altered Satellite Cell Responsiveness and Denervation Implicated in Progression of Rotator-Cuff Injury.

BACKGROUND:Rotator-cuff injury (RCI) is common and painful; even after surgery, joint stability and function may not recover. Relative contributions to atrophy from disuse, fibrosis, denervation, and satellite-cell responsiveness to activating stimuli are not known. METHODS AND FINDINGS:Potential co...
