The satellite cell is responsible for growth and repair of postnatal skeletal muscle. We investigated the expression of the myogenic regulatory gene (MRG) family in these cells in the stages from quiescence to fusion. Using polymerase chain reaction amplification of reverse-transcribed RNA (RT-PCR)

We investigated the myogenic properties of rabbit fast or slow muscle satellite cells during their differentiation in culture, with a particular attention to the expression of myosin heavy chain and myogenic regulatory factor genes. Satellite cells were isolated from Semimembranosus proprius (slow-t
## Abstract It is known that the MyoD family members (MyoD, Myf5, myogenin, and MRF4) play a pivotal role in the complex mechanism of skeletal muscle cell differentiation. However, fragmentary information on transcription factorβspecific regulation is available and data on their postβtranscriptiona
Skeletal muscle growth is regulated by differential expression of myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs). We evaluated hyperplasia, hypertrophy and quantitative expression of MRFs MyoD and myogenin in 45, 90, 180, and 400 days post-hatching (dph) and adult pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) skeletal muscle.
