The effect of thyroxine (T3) was studied on the transmembrane resting potential (Em) of rat skeletal muscle cells in culture. In agreement with previous studies, we found the Em of developing muscle cells to increase with age from Day 3 to Day 7 or 8, at which time a plateau is reached. The values o

BACKGROUND. An in vitro model of prostatic stromal cells suitable for experimental studies of the pathogenesis of BPH is still lacking. We therefore standardized the isolation, cultivation, and characterization of human prostatic stromal cell lineages. METHODS. Stromal cells were isolated from a sur
## Abstract Culturing of skeletal muscle cells on conductive surfaces is required to develop electronic deviceβmuscle junctions for tissue engineering and medical applications. We characterized from a molecular and morphological point of view myogenic cells cultured on gold and on cysteamineβcoated
Background: Desmin and vimentin are the major intermediate filaments in muscle. They have been extensively studied in animal experiments. This study is the first to identify the distribution and to analyse the correlation of desmin and vimentin in human fetal skeletal muscle. Vimentin might be repla
## Abstract Major problems in stem cell biology revolve around defining the developmental potential of cell populations and understanding how their potential is maintained or progressively restricted. Oxygen (O~2~) is an obvious environmental factor which has received little attention in culturing
