Adipogenic progenitors from obese human skeletal muscle give rise to functional white adipocytes that contribute to insulin resistance
Here we show that CD15 + cells isolated from the CD56 − fraction of cultured human skeletal muscle-derived stroma of obese subjects display the features and metabolic phenotype of white ...

Can oestrogen influence skeletal muscle damage, inflammation, and repair?
Sex differences in susceptibility to muscle damage are also of interest. This overview will briefly examine these questions and summarise the current evidence for oestrogenic influence on skeletal ...
