PGC-1α in the myofibers regulates the balance between myogenic and adipogenic progenitors affecting muscle regeneration
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Skeletal muscle repair is accomplished by satellite cells (MuSCs) in cooperation with interstitial stromal cells (ISCs), but the relationship between the function of these cells and the metabolic state of myofibers remains unclear. This study reports an altered proportion of MuSCs and ISCs (including adipogenesis-regulatory cells; Aregs) induced by the transgenic overexpression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α) in the myofibers (MCK-PGC-1α mice). Although PGC-1α-driven increase of MuSCs does not accelerate muscle regeneration, myogenic progenitors isolated from MCK-PGC-1α mice and transplanted into intact and regenerating muscles are more prone to fuse with recipient myofibers than those derived from wild-type donors. Moreover, both young and aged MCK-PGC-1α animals exhibit reduced perilipin-positive areas when challenged with an adipogenic stimulus, demonstrating low propensity to accumulate adipocytes within the muscle. Overall, these results unveil that increased PGC-1α expression in the myofibers favors pro-myogenic and anti-adipogenic cell populations in the skeletal muscle.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
