| Popis: | Background This study aimed to elucidate the potential usefulness of the medial rectus muscle of cadavers for research on satellite cells. Methods Twenty-four medial rectus muscles were obtained from 12 cadavers. The control group included six medial rectus muscles from three live adults without brain activity. The muscle fiber diameter and distribution of satellite cells were measured and compared. Immunohistochemistry for myosin heavy chain and the transcription factor PAX7 was performed, and the distributions of myocytes and satellite cells were evaluated. Results The average muscle fiber diameter was 142.18±36.49 μm in the cadaver group and 149.34±15.26 μm in the control group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (p=0.38). The ratio of PAX7(+) cells to the number of muscle fibers was 0.056±0.015 in the control group and 0.006±0.006 in the cadaver group, reflecting a significant difference (p |
