| Term Name: | obsolete myoblast fate specification involved in skeletal muscle regeneration |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | |
| Definition: | OBSOLETE. The process in which a satellite cell becomes capable of differentiating autonomously into a myoblast in an environment that is neutral with respect to the developmental pathway. Upon specification, the cell fate can be reversed. 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. |
