Summary: While protein ADP-ribosylation was reported to regulate differentiation and dedifferentiation, it has so far not been studied during transdifferentiation. Here, we found that MyoD-induced transdifferentiation of fibroblasts to myoblasts promotes

Differential Cooperation between Heterochromatin Protein HP1 Isoforms and MyoD in Myoblasts [PDF]
Mechanisms of transcriptional repression are important during cell differentiation. Mammalian heterochromatin protein 1 isoforms HP1alpha, HP1beta, and HP1gamma play important roles in the regulation of chromatin structure and function. We explored the possibility of different roles for the three HP1 isoforms in an integrated system, skeletal muscle ...

Mos Activates Myogenic Differentiation by Promoting Heterodimerization of MyoD and E12 Proteins [PDF]
The activities of myogenic basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) factors are regulated by a number of different positive and negative signals. Extensive information has been published about the molecular mechanisms that interfere with the process of myogenic differentiation, but little is known about the positive signals.

Direct Reprogramming of Fibroblasts to Myocytes via Bacterial Injection of MyoD Protein [PDF]
Forced exogenous gene expression has been well characterized as an effective method for directing both cellular differentiation and dedifferentiation. However, transgene expression is not amenable for therapeutic application due to potential insertional mutagenesis.

Growth factors improve the proliferation of Jeju black pig muscle cells by regulating myogenic differentiation 1 and growth-related genes [PDF]
Objective The growth rate of pigs is related to differentiation and proliferation of muscle cells, which are regulated by growth factors and expression of growth-related genes. Thus, the objective of this study was to establish optimal culture conditions

Specific Activation of the Acetylcholine Receptor Subunit Genes by MyoD Family Proteins [PDF]
Whether the myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs) of the MyoD family can discriminate among the muscle gene targets for the proper and reproducible formation of skeletal muscle is a recurrent question. We have previously shown that, in Xenopus laevis, myogenin specifically transactivated muscle structural genes in vivo.

Data on MyoD reduction by autophagy in C2C12 cells
Autophagy is a highly regulated physiologic mechanism in which cells maintain homeostasis by degrading excessive or unnecessary proteins and damaged or aged organelles through the lysosomal machinery (Yorimitsu and Klionsky, 2005) [1].
