“…Moreover, platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRα) has recently been shown to distinguish adipogenic from non adipogenic cells among interstitial cells in murine muscle (Uezumi et al, 2010). Because available tools have been rather limited until recently in livestock species (Rozemuller et al, 2010), few data have been obtained in pigs (Perruchot et al, 2013) and ruminants (Ren et al, 2012;Sampaio et al, 2015). Clear advancement was allowed by the selection of antibodies against CD34, CD45, CD31, CD56, CD11b, CD14, CD90 and PDGFRα markers in porcine adipose tissue and skeletal muscle (Perruchot et al, 2013).…”
