Oxytocin is an age-specific circulating hormone that is necessary for muscle maintenance and regeneration. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle declines with age. Previous studies suggest that this process can be reversed by exposure to young circulation; however, systemic age-specific factors responsible for this phenomenon are largely unknown.

Myomaker and Myomixer are required for craniofacial myoblast fusion in zebrafish

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Craniofacial and trunk skeletal muscles are derived from different progenitor populations during development. Trunk skeletal muscles contain mostly multinucleated myofibers that are formed through myoblast fusion. However, myoblast fusion in craniofacial muscles and its molecular regulation are not well understood.

Disruption of the mouse MRF4 gene identifies multiple waves of myogenesis in the myotome [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
MRF4 (herculin/Myf-6) is one of the four member MyoD family of transcription factors identified by their ability to enforce skeletal muscle differentiation upon a wide variety of nonmuscle cell types.

Investigating synthetic oligonucleotide targeting of miR31 in Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Exon-skipping via synthetic antisense oligonucleotides represents one of the most promising potential therapies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), yet this approach is highly sequence-specific and thus each oligonucleotide is of benefit to only a ...

Roles of TIF1β in Leukemic Stem Cell Through SETDB1‐Dependent and Independent Mechanisms

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
In leukemic stem cell, BCR::ABL cooperates with TIF1β to open chromatin at oncogenes and close chromatin at differentiation regulators, driving leukemic reprogramming. In TIF1β‐deficient stem cell, the loss of TIF1β inverts this balance, showing closed chromatin at oncogenes and open chromatin at differentiation regulators.

Overexpression of syndecan-4 inhibits myogenesis by regulating the expression of myogenic regulatory factors

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Technology
Syndecan-4, a type of heparin sulfate proteoglycan, plays an important role in muscle development, regeneration, and maintenance. Although, the important effects of syndecan-4 on the regulation of myogenesis in mice, turkeys, and bovines have been ...

Isolated sequences from the linked Myf-5 and MRF4 genes drive distinct patterns of muscle-specific expression in transgenic mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
In developing mouse embryos, MyoD family regulatory genes are expressed specifically in muscle precursors and mature myofibers. This pattern, taken together with the well-established ability of MyoD family members to convert a variety of cell types to ...

LCN2‐ACOD1 Signalling Affects the Post‐Injury Regeneration of Skeletal Muscle Through Mediating Ferroptosis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
LCN2 mediates the suppression of C2C12 myoblast proliferation and myotube formation via erastin‐induced ferroptosis. Mechanistically, the LCN2‐ACOD1 axis regulates skeletal muscle growth via mitochondria‐associated ferroptosis, providing a theoretical basis for the prevention and therapy of muscle‐related diseases.

Myogenesis of Porcine Muscle Satellite Cells by Extracellular Matrix From Fibrotic Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

open access: yesMeat and Muscle Biology
Cultivated meat relies on the production of muscle tissue using cell culture techniques. Myogenesis is a cellular differentiation process in which muscle satellite cells (SC) transform into myoblasts, or myotubes.

Mitochondria as a Potential Regulator of Myogenesis

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Recent studies have shown that mitochondria play a role in the regulation of myogenesis. Indeed, the abundance, morphology, and functional properties of mitochondria become altered when the myoblasts differentiate into myotubes.
