## Abstract Our previous studies suggest that the cysteine protease cathepsin B (catB) is involved in skeletal myoblast differentiation (myogenesis). To test this hypothesis, we examined the effect of trapping one of the two catB alleles on the ability of C2C12 cells to differentiate. During differ
## Abstract Genetic engineering with osteogenic factors is a promising approach for cellβbased therapeutics and orthopedic regeneration. However, the relative efficacy of different strategies for inducing osteoblastic differentiation remains unclear and is further complicated by varied delivery veh
Cadherins form a large family of membrane glycoproteins which mediate homophilic calcium-dependent cell adhesion. They are thought to mediate the initial calcium-dependent cell adhesion which precedes the plasma membrane fusion of skeletal myoblasts. Two cadherin subtypes are known to be expressed i
