Myeloid cell‐specific mutation of <i>Spi1</i> selectively reduces <scp>M2</scp>‐biased macrophage numbers in skeletal muscle, reduces age‐related muscle fibrosis and prevents sarcopenia
Aging of the immune system and impaired muscle regeneration: A failure of immunomodulation of adult myogenesis
Aging of the immune system causes reductions in muscle stem cell populations, promotes their shift to a fibrogenic phenotype, and modulates sarcopenia
Myeloid cell‐derived tumor necrosis factor‐alpha promotes sarcopenia and regulates muscle cell fusion with aging muscle fibers
Increases of M2a macrophages and fibrosis in aging muscle are influenced by bone marrow aging and negatively regulated by muscle‐derived nitric oxide
Shared signaling systems in myeloid cell-mediated muscle regeneration
IL-10 Triggers Changes in Macrophage Phenotype That Promote Muscle Growth and Regeneration
Age‐related loss of nitric oxide synthase in skeletal muscle causes reductions in calpain<i>S</i>‐nitrosylation that increase myofibril degradation and sarcopenia
