Description
Shubhangi Das Barman and co-authors compile a who's who of cell types in skeletal muscle. Published in 2026, the review notes that tissues do complex work through coordinated action of specialized cell types, yet no full overview exists for solid tissues. Muscle serves as their model case for how such a catalog should be built.
The authors gather 62 unified definitions of muscle cell types from the literature, each stated by lineage, molecular signature, and function. They show how each type contributes to muscle work. Where counts exist, they compare two census methods, tissue imaging and single cell RNA sequencing, and flag types each method over or under counts. The result is a benchmark resource for single cell studies.
