Spontaneous channel activity induced by tumor promoter TPA in chick myotubes
Patch-clamp recordings were used to study the activation of ion channels in the cell membrane of cultured embryonic chick myotubes treated with the specific activator of protein kinase C, the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA; 1 x ...

Necessity of transferrin for RNA synthesis in chick myotubes
Journal of Cellular Physiology, 1986AbstractChick transferrin (Tf) is essential not only for growth and differentiation but also for the maintenance of chick myotubes in culture. Its removal from the culture medium gives rise to degeneration of the myotubes. The analysis of this process revealed that the removal resulted in decrease in total and messenger RNA content in the myotubes ...

Oxotremorine Acts as a Partial Nicotinic Agonist on Cultured Chick Myotubes
Acta Pharmacologica Et Toxicologica, 1985Abstract:Oxotremorine, a compound widely used as a muscarinic agonist, was found to inhibit binding of125I–α–bungarotoxin to chick myotube nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, IC50 = 79 ± 5 μM. Oxotremorine also induced a d–tubocurarine sensitive influx of86Rb in the myotubes (EC50 = 50 ± 15 μM).

Electrophysiological properties of the membrane and acetylcholine receptor in developing rat and chick myotubes. [PDF]
Membrane properties of rat and chick myotubes in various stages of development were studied. Resting membrane potentials (Em) increased from -8 to -55 mV in both rat and chick as the myotubes developed from myoblasts to large multinucleated fibers.

Formation of acetylcholine receptor clusters in chick myotubes: migration or new insertion? [PDF]
Experiments were performed to study the feasibility of two mechanisms of acetylcholine receptor (ACHR) accumulation in chick myotubes: diffusion and trapping of previously dispersed surface receptors and localized insertion of new receptors at accumulation sites.
