Muscle satellite cells (MSCs) are myogenic stem cells that play a critical role in post-hatch skeletal muscle growth and regeneration. Activation of regeneration pathways to repair muscle fiber damage requires both the proliferation and differentiation ...

MYOD induced lnc-MEG3 promotes porcine satellite cell differentiation via interacting with DLST
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the process of muscle cell differentiation and play an important role. Previous studies have shown that lncRNA-MEG3 promotes the differentiation of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells (PSCs), but the ...

E3 ubiquitin ligases are closely related to cell division, differentiation, and survival in all eukaryotes and play crucial regulatory roles in multiple biological processes and diseases. While Deltex2, as a member of the DELTEX family ubiquitin ligases,

Evolutionary Conservation of MyoD Function and Differential Utilization of E Proteins
The formation of striated muscle in both vertebrates and invertebrates involves the activity of the MyoD family of basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors. The high degree of evolutionary conservation of MyoD-related proteins, both in the sequence of their bHLH domains and in their general developmental expression patterns, suggests that ...

Pbx homeodomain proteins direct Myod activity to promote fast-muscle differentiation [PDF]
The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor Myod directly regulates gene expression throughout the program of skeletal muscle differentiation. It is not known how a Myod-driven myogenic program is modulated to achieve muscle fiber-type-specific gene expression.

Interaction of MyoD Family Proteins with Enhancers of Acetylcholine Receptor Subunit Genes in Vivo [PDF]
The myogenic determination factors (MDFs) are transcriptional activators that target E boxes in many muscle-specific promoters, including those of the genes coding for the subunits of the acetylcholine receptor. It is not known, however, if in vivo a given E box in a transcriptionally active gene is occupied, either uniquely by one MDF or randomly by ...

MyoD Regulates Skeletal Muscle Oxidative Metabolism Cooperatively with Alternative NF-κB
MyoD is a key regulator of skeletal myogenesis that directs contractile protein synthesis, but whether this transcription factor also regulates skeletal muscle metabolism has not been explored. In a genome-wide ChIP-seq analysis of skeletal muscle cells,

Background: As a process of aging, skeletal muscle mass and function gradually decrease. It is reported that ginsenoside Rb1 and Rb2 play a role as AMP-activated protein kinase activator, resulting in regulating glucose homeostasis, and Rb1 reduces ...

Oscillations of MyoD and Hes1 proteins regulate the maintenance of activated muscle stem cells [PDF]
The balance between proliferation and differentiation of muscle stem cells is tightly controlled, ensuring the maintenance of a cellular pool needed for muscle growth and repair. We demonstrate here that the transcriptional regulator Hes1 controls the balance between proliferation and differentiation of activated muscle stem cells in both developing ...

Visualizing the Needle in the Haystack: In Situ Hybridization With Fluorescent Dendrimers
In situ hybridization with 3DNA™ dendrimers is a novel tool for detecting low levels of mRNA in tissue sections and whole embryos. Fluorescently labeled dendrimers were used to identify cells that express mRNA for the skeletal muscle transcription ...
