Abstract figure legend Mice received chemical injury (cardiotoxin) in the tibialis anterior muscle of one limb, and the contralateral muscle was injected with phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS) as a sham control. Mice then received PBS or mitochondria suspended in PBS into the tail vein.

Coordinated actions of microRNAs with other epigenetic factors regulate skeletal muscle development and adaptation [PDF]
Epigenetics plays a pivotal role in regulating gene expression in development, in response to cellular stress or in disease states, in virtually all cell types.

Biomaterial Physical Cues as Gene Regulators for Cellular Agriculture
This review elucidates how biomaterial physical cues—ranging from matrix stiffness to remote electromagnetic fields—serve as extrinsic regulators of gene expression in cellular agriculture. By identifying central mechanotransduction pathways that bridge physical inputs to genetic remodeling, the authors propose the “Material Genome” concept: a ...

Inhibition of protein phosphatases blocks myogenesis by first altering MyoD binding activity.
To examine the role of protein phosphatases in skeletal muscle differentiation, C2C12 myoblasts were treated with okadaic acid, a potent in vitro inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A which regulate various cellular events in intact cells. We now show that okadaic acid treatment of the mouse myoblast C2C12 cell line reversibly altered the ...

ABSTRACT Background Patients with end‐stage liver disease (ESLD) often present with sarcopenia, defined as loss of skeletal muscle mass and quality, which is associated with reduced quality of life and increased mortality. However, the molecular mechanisms driving sarcopenia in ESLD are not fully understood and there are currently no therapeutic ...

The mechanical stimulation of myotubes counteracts the effects of tumor-derived factors through the modulation of the activin/follistatin ratio [PDF]
Activin negatively affects muscle fibers and progenitor cells in aging (sarcopenia) and in chronic diseases characterized by severe muscle wasting (cachexia). High circulating activin levels predict poor survival in cancer patients. However, the relative

ABSTRACT Background Cancer cachexia is a debilitating syndrome characterized by severe skeletal muscle wasting, which significantly impairs patient quality of life and survival. Indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase 1 (IDO1), a key enzyme in tryptophan (Trp) metabolism, is often upregulated in cancers, but its specific role in driving lung cancer–associated ...

A recipe for myositis : nuclear factor κB and nuclear factor of activated T-cells transcription factor pathways spiced up by cytokines [PDF]
Nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) is a well-known pro-inflammatory transcription factor that regulates the expression of the tissue’s immune-active components, which include cytokines, chemokines and adhesion molecules.

Early changes in rat diaphragm biology with mechanical ventilation [PDF]
To better characterize the effects of 24-hour mechanical ventilation on diaphragm, the expression of myogenic transcription factors, myosin heavy chains, and sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase pumps was examined in rats.
