Term Name: | myoblast differentiation involved in skeletal muscle regeneration |
---|---|
Synonyms: | |
Definition: | The process in which a relatively unspecialized satellite cell acquires specialized features of a myoblast. This occurs as part of skeletal muscle regeneration. A myoblast is a mononucleate cell type that, by fusion with other myoblasts, gives rise to the myotubes that eventually develop into skeletal muscle fibers. |
