Satellite cells are crucial for skeletal muscle regeneration, with studies highlighting their role in self-renewal and differentiation. Research explores intrinsic changes and extrinsic influences on myogenic stem cell function during aging, and the regulation of satellite cell quiescence during regeneration. Key findings include the indispensable role of Pax7-expressing satellite cells, asymmetric self-renewal and commitment in muscle, and the impact of the aged niche on muscle stem cell quiescence. Advances in understanding satellite cell behavior, isolation techniques, and their therapeutic potential in muscle disorders are also discussed.
