Alignment of myoblasts on ultrafine gratings inhibits fusion in vitro.

The international journal of biochemistry & cell biology - 1 Jul 2002

Clark P, Dunn G A, Knibbs A, Peckham M

Abstract excerpt

During development, skeletal muscle precursor cells fuse to form multi-nucleated myotubes. However, it is unclear how this fusion is regulated such that linear myotubes are produced. In a previous study, we found that linear arrays of myoblasts cultured on micropatterns of laminin fused to form linear myotubes of a constant diameter, independent of the width of the laminin track. This suggested that a mechanism...
