Regulation of Ribosome Biogenesis During Skeletal Muscle Hypertrophy

Abstract excerpt

An increase in ribosomal capacity is a hallmark of the hypertrophying muscle. We review evidence demonstrating that transcription of ribosomal RNA genes is necessary for the increase in ribosomal capacity, and this is critical for muscle growth in human and animal models of hypertrophy.
