Reduced satellite cell density and myogenesis in Wagyu compared with Angus cattle as a possible explanation of its high marbling
Mechanisms responsible for excellent marbling in Japanese black cattle, Wagyu, remain to be established. Because both muscle cells and intramuscular adipocytes are developed from mesenchymal progenitor cells during early muscle development, we hypothesized that intramuscular progenitor cells in Wagy...
