The E2F transcription factor is a key cell cycle regulator. However, the inactivation of the entire E2F family in Drosophila is permissive throughout most of animal development until pupation when lethality occurs. Here we show that E2F function in the adult skeletal muscle is essential for animal...

1g,h). To further confirm that SkMO GFP+ cells have acquired properties of satellite cells, we set up a clonal growth assay modified from those used frequently to ascertain stem cell function in the neural and hematopoietic fields31,32,33,34. Using FACS to sort one GFP+ cell per well of...
The technique of extracellular space tracing with horseradish peroxidase is adapted for labeling the transverse tubular system (T system) in rat heart. In rat ventricular muscle the T system shows extensive branching and remarkable tortu... Forssmann,G W. - 《Journal of Cell Biology》 被引量:...
Daphnia, the lack of knowledge of the histology or ultrastructure of its heart has pre- cluded any correlation of structure and function for this tissue... Stein,J R. - 《Journal of Cell Biology》 被引量: 48发表: 1966年 Morphology of spines and spine joint in the crown-of-thorns starfi...
(Figure adapted from G.A. Nader) [10]. Full size image In addition to understanding the possible mechanisms of testosterone, there may be improved recovery time as measured by questionnaires and function tests. In a study using the Tegner Activity Scale [12], a questionnaire developed to ...
This is in large part because UCP1-positive adipocytes generally, and beige adipocytes in particular, occur within a complex, heterogeneous mixture of other cell types in adipose tissues. To address the cellular heterogeneity issue, we have adapted translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) ...
This cellular model will be a powerful tool for studying in vitro myogenesis and for drug discovery pertaining to further enhancing muscle development or treating muscle diseases. Keywords: skeletal muscle; myotubes; myokines; human embryonic stem cell; myosin heavy chain...
Although it has been established that vitamin D plays an important role in muscle function and maintenance, its role in muscle regeneration and repair is less well understood and is the subject of this review. This review will address this topic by exploring cell culture studies and animal and ...
Cell transplantation in murine models has shown promise in supplementing the lack of the dystrophin protein in DMD muscles. However, the establishment of novel, long-term, relevant methods is needed to assess its efficiency on the DMD motor function. By applying newly developed methods, this study...
