Figure 6

Morphological evaluation of telocytes and satellite cells (SCs) interaction in formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue sections from control EDL muscles, EDL muscles damaged by ex vivo forced eccentric contraction (EC) and EDL muscles damaged by EC in the presence of bone marrow-mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) conditioned medium (EC + MSC-CM). (a–c) Representative confocal immunofluorescence images of muscle tissue sections immunostained with antibodies against Pax7 (green) and CD34 (red). Arrows indicate the presence of CD34+ telocytes in the close vicinity of Pax7+ SCs. Images are representative of at least 3 sections from each of 4 control, 4 EC and 4 EC + MSC-CM muscles. Scale bars = 25 μm.
