    Interleukin-1β Triggers Muscle-Derived Extracellular Superoxide Dismutase Expression and Protects Muscles from Doxorubicin-Induced Atrophy

    Scientists demonstrated that doxorubicin triggered severe muscle atrophy via upregulation of oxidative stress and atrogenes in association with decreased expression of the antioxidant enzyme extracellular superoxide dismutase, in cultured C2C12 myotubes and mouse skeletal muscle.

    Hypocalcemia in Combination with Hyperphosphatemia Impairs Muscle Cell Differentiation In Vitro

    C2C12 cells, an in vitro model of muscle cells, were differentiated for two or six days in the presence of hypocalcemia and moderate or severe hyperphosphatemia, or combinations of both conditions.

    Impact of Human Recombinant Irisin on Tissue-Engineered Skeletal Muscle Structure and Function

    Investigators determined the impact of human recombinant irisin on the growth and development of three-dimensional engineered skeletal muscle. Muscle satellite cells were cultured without irisin, or with either 50 ng/ml, 100 ng/ml, or 250 ng/ml of irisin supplementation.
