Abstract excerpt
The bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) pathway is known to be involved in limb myogenesis during development, but whether it is involved in postnatal muscle regeneration is unclear. We have found that adult inhibitor of differentiation (Id)-mutant (Id1(+/-)Id3(-/-)) mice display delayed and reduced skeletal muscle regeneration after injury compared with either wild-type littermates or Id3-null mice. Immunoblotting...
