Summary: Quiescent skeletal muscle stem cells (MuSCs) are morphologically and functionally heterogeneous and exhibit different lengths of cellular extensions, which we call protrusions. Here, we present a protocol for ex vivo two-photon imaging of MuSCs in their native environment. We describe steps for muscle dissection, fixation, embedding, imaging, and analysis of datasets. This protocol allows the examination of MuSC morphology and protrusions at the single-cell level as well as stem cell numbers.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Ma et al. (2022).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics. |
