Enhancement of C2C12 myoblast proliferation and differentiation by GASP-2, a myostatin inhibitor
BACKGROUND GASP-2 is a secreted multi-domain glycoprotein known as a specific inhibitor of myostatin and GDF-11. Here we investigate the role of GASP-2 on myogenesis and the effect of its glycosylation on its activity. METHODS GASP-2 overexpression or knockdown by shRNAs were carried out on C2C12 myoblasts cells. In silico analysis of GASP-2 protein was performed to identify its glycosylation...
متن کاملMyostatin promotes tenogenic differentiation of C2C12 myoblast cells through Smad3
Myostatin, a member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily, is expressed in developing and adult skeletal muscle and negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth. Recently, myostatin has been found to be expressed in tendons and increases tendon fibroblast proliferation and the expression of tenocyte markers. C2C12 is a mouse myoblast cell line, which has the ability to transdif...
متن کاملStromal interaction molecule 2 regulates C2C12 myoblast differentiation
BACKGROUND Enhanced intracellular Ca2+ signaling by stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1)-mediated store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is required for skeletal muscle differentiation. However, the contribution of STIM2, STIM1's analogue protein, on muscle cell differentiation has not been clearly elucidated. The present study aimed to explore the contribution of STIM2-mediated SOCE on C2C12 myobl...
متن کاملAnoctamin 6 Regulates C2C12 Myoblast Proliferation
Anoctamin 6 (Ano6) belongs to a conserved gene family (TMEM16) predicted to code for eight transmembrane proteins with putative Ca2+-activated chloride channel (CaCC) activity. Recent work revealed that disruption of ANO6 leads to a blood coagulation defect and impaired skeletal development. However, its function in skeletal muscle cells remains to be determined. By using a RNA interference med...
متن کاملProteomics-based investigation in C2C12 myoblast differentiation
Skeletal muscle cell differentiation is a multistage process extensively studied over the years. Even if great improvements have been achieved in defining biological process underlying myogenesis, many molecular mechanisms need still to be clarified. To further highlight this process, we studied cells at undifferentiated, intermediate and highly differentiated stages, and we analyzed, for each ...
