## Abstract Myostatin is a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth. We have previously reported that recombinant myostatin protein inhibits DNA and protein synthesis in C2C12 cells. Our objective was to assess if C2C12 cells express myostatin, determine its subβcellular localization and the de
We recently demonstrated that granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is an autocrine growth factor for human osteoblastic (hOB) cells. Since GM-CSF is a member of the heparin-binding factor family, we examined the interactions between GM-CSF and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) present i
