two things wrong about this article. 1. myoblasts don't fuse into myofibers. myoblasts don't even fuse. they differentiate into myocytes which fuse into myofibers. 2. myoblasts don't differentiate into satellite cells. satellite cells differentiate into myoblasts.
satellite cells > myoblasts > myocytes > muscle fibers Kuang and Rudnicki (2008) is a good source. they do suggest myoblasts may dedifferentiate back into satellite cells however. i dont have time to edit the page right now though. maybe someone else is up to the task? —Preceding unsigned comment added by JohnLattier (talk • contribs) 18:38, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
