The paper identifies distinct molecular and functional properties of extraocular muscle stem cells compared to limb muscle stem cells using scRNA-seq and other methods.

The paper identifies Myf5+ bipotent progenitors in mice that generate both muscle and connective tissue, showing their distinct lineage and regulatory features.

The paper investigates the development of extraocular muscles, identifying retinoic acid's role in their formation and tendon attachment sites.

This study identifies molecular differences between extraocular and limb muscle stem cells, showing that EOM MuSCs reprogram their transcriptome and epigenome after transplantation, with some genes resisting engraftment.

The paper identifies a fibroblast-to-myoblast conversion driven by BMP signalling at the muscle-tendon interface during limb development.

The paper identifies a genetic hierarchy involving Tbx1, Isl1, and Met/HGF signaling that regulates antero-posterior patterning of esophagus striated muscle in mice.

The paper investigates how BMP signaling, through the Smad1/5/8 inhibitor Dullard, regulates cardiac neural crest cell behavior and outflow tract septation in vertebrates.
