Scope note: Células contráctiles maduras, comúnmente conocidas como miocitos, que forman cualquiera de los tres tipos de músculo. Los tres tipos de células musculares son: esqueléticas (FIBRAS MUSCULARES ESQUELÉTICAS), cardíacas (MIOCITOS CARDIACOS) y lisas (MIOCITOS DEL MÚSCULO LISO). Derivan de las células musculares embrionarias (precursoras) denominadas MIOBLASTOS.

Scope note: Mature contractile cells, commonly known as myocytes, that form one of three kinds of muscle. The three types of muscle cells are skeletal (MUSCLE FIBERS, SKELETAL), cardiac (MYOCYTES, CARDIAC), and smooth (MYOCYTES, SMOOTH MUSCLE). They are derived from embryonic (precursor) muscle cells called MYOBLASTS.
