The scapula is not only moved by one muscle, but several. All the muscles around it that connect to it assist in moving it in a certain way whether it be moving it closer to the spine in adduction, away from the spine in abduction, elevating it, or rotating it. The subscapularis, romboids, trapezius, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, latisimus dorsi, levator scapuli, teres, and some other rotator cuff muscles all move the scapula.

Subscapularis, infraspinatus, supraspinatus, teres major and minor, deltoid and trapezium, latissimus dorsi, pectoralis minor, coracobrachialis, biceps and triceps brachii, levator scapulae and the two rhomboideus, serratus anterior. I can't count them, but these are only ones I can remember.

What structures are related to lateral end of the spine of the scapula?

Scapula is very interesting bone. It holds the upper limb, but have no bony attachment to your thorax. It is attached to thorax, through the collar bone or the clavicle. Lateral end of the clavicle is attached to the lateral end of the spine of the scapula. On the inside of the spine of the scapula and clavicle, you have insertion of the muscle called as trapezius. From out side of this, you have origin of the deltoid muscle. Technically and mechanically, the trapezius muscle continues as deltoid muscle.
