The central clock drives metabolic rhythms in muscle stem cells

Valentina Sica, Jacob G. Smith, Oleg Deryagin…·Pura Muñoz‐Cánoves

This study shows that the central clock controls metabolic rhythms in muscle stem cells, independent of the local stem cell clock, and highlights the role of autophagy and lipid metabolism in this process.
