Abstract |
The fusion of myoblasts, the skeletal muscle progenitors, is critical for skeletal muscle formation, function, and repair after muscle injury. Recognition of the phospholipid phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) exposed on certain myoblasts is required during fusion into multinuclear myofibers. Cell surface exposure of PtdSer is also a feature of cells dying through the process of apoptosis. Here, we describe the use of PtdSer exposing apoptotic cells as stimulators of myoblast fusion. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 February 2016.
All research outputs
#15,355,821
of 22,842,950 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#5,347
of 13,127 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#209,075
of 353,225 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#346
of 997 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,842,950 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,127 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 353,225 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 997 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 56% of its contemporaries.
