The satellite cell population in skeletal muscles of ten normal subjects aged 7 to 73 years was quantitated by electron microscopy. In all 1,414 nuclei were assessed. Satellite cell nuclei comprised 4% (standard deviation 2%) of all nuclei within the fibre basal lamina. The lowest incidence (0.6%) was found in a 73-year-old man. The study confirms, that satellite cells are regularly present in human skeletal muscle.
通过电子显微镜对10名年龄在7至73岁的正常受试者的骨骼肌卫星细胞群进行了定量分析。总共评估了1414个细胞核。卫星细胞核占纤维基膜内所有细胞核的4%（标准差为2%）。在一名73岁男性中发现了最低发生率（0.6%）。该研究证实，卫星细胞在人类骨骼肌中经常存在。
