Skeletal muscle injury and regeneration are closely associated with an inflammatory
reaction that is usually characterized by sequential recruitment of neutrophils and …

When damaged, skeletal muscle regenerates. In the early phases of regeneration,
inflammatory cells such as neutrophils/granulocytes and macrophages infiltrate damaged …

Skeletal muscle is a plastic tissue that regenerates ad integrum after injury and adapts to
raise mechanical loading/contractile activity by increasing its mass and/or myofiber size, a …

Hindlimb unloading and reloading are characterized by a major loss of muscle force and are
associated with classic leukocyte infiltration during recovery from muscle atrophy …

Background: Unaccustomed exercise, high-intensity dynamic sports activities, or the
resumption of normal weight-bearing after a period of disuse can induce skeletal muscle …

Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue, which is able to regenerate after an injury. Effective
and complete regeneration requires interactions between myogenic precursor cells and …

Macrophages are necessary for skeletal muscle regeneration after injury. Muscle recruits
inflammatory monocytes/macrophages that switch toward an anti-inflammatory profile upon …

Muscle contusion is one of the most common muscle injuries in sports medicine.
Macrophages play complex roles in the regeneration of skeletal muscle. However, the roles …

Macrophages (MPs) are important for skeletal muscle regeneration in vivo and may exert
beneficial effects on myogenic cell growth through mitogenic and antiapoptotic activities in …

Following injury to different tissues, macrophages can contribute to both regenerative and
fibrotic healing. These seemingly contradictory roles of macrophages may be related to the …
