The study's purpose was to determine the extent to which laminin‐111 (LM‐111) can alter stem cell quantity following eccentric exercise‐induced damage in mice. Although mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) percentage and number were not altered, MSC proinflammatory gene expression was decreased, and hepatocyte growth factor gene expression was increased, suggesting that LM‐111 supplementation provides a viable solution for increasing skeletal muscle stem cell number and/or function, allowing for improvements in the regenerative response to exercise.
