An update on MyoD evolution in teleosts and a proposed consensus nomenclature to accommodate the tetraploidization of different vertebrate genomes. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: MyoD is a muscle specific transcription factor that is essential for vertebrate myogenesis. In several teleost species, including representatives of the Salmonidae and Acanthopterygii, but not zebrafish, two or more MyoD paralogues are ...

A model to account for the role of Pax-3 in myogenesis is shown in Figure 2Figure 2. Not surprisingly, these new studies on the myogenic functions of Pax-3 raise as many questions as they answer. For example, how does Pax-3 activate MyoD expression? Is the MyoD gene a direct target for transcriptional activation by Pax-3 or are there intermediate steps?

Reversible differentiation of myofibroblasts by MyoD [PDF]
Myofibroblasts participate in tissue repair processes in diverse mammalian organ systems. The deactivation of myofibroblasts is critical for termination of the reparative response and restoration of tissue structure and function. The current paradigm on normal tissue repair is the apoptotic clearance of terminally differentiated myofibroblasts; while ...

Disruption of the MyoD/p21 Pathway in Rhabdomyosarcoma [PDF]
Purpose. Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an embryonal tumor thought to arise from skeletal muscle cells that fail to differentiate terminally. The majority of RMSs express MyoD, a protein essential to the differentiation of skeletal muscle.

Inhibition of atrogin-1/MAFbx mediated MyoD proteolysis prevents skeletal muscle atrophy in vivo. [PDF]
Ubiquitin ligase Atrogin1/Muscle Atrophy F-box (MAFbx) up-regulation is required for skeletal muscle atrophy but substrates and function during the atrophic process are poorly known.

Oscillations of MyoD and Hes1 proteins regulate the maintenance of activated muscle stem cells
Lahmann et al. show that Hes1 controls the balance between proliferation and differentiation of activated muscle stem cells in both developing and regenerating muscle.

Long non-coding RNA Linc-RAM enhances myogenic differentiation by interacting with MyoD
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important regulators of diverse biological processes. Here we report on functional identification and characterization of a novel long intergenic non-coding RNA with MyoD-regulated and skeletal muscle-restricted ...

Regulation of MyoD function in the dividing myoblast [PDF]
Proliferating myoblasts express MyoD, yet no phenotypic markers are activated as long as mitogen levels are sufficient to keep the cells dividing. Depending upon mitogen levels, a decision is made in G1 that commits the myoblast to either continue to divide or to exit from the cell cycle and activate terminal differentiation. Ectopic expression of MyoD
