IGF‐II is more active than IGF‐I in stimulating L6A1 myogenesis: Greater mitogenic actions of IGF‐I delay differentiation
1 Nov 1994
Abstract excerpt
Mitogens are generally thought to inhibit myogenesis, and many cell biologists have found it hard to interpret observations that the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) stimulate both proliferation and differentiation of muscle cells in culture. Our previous studies suggested that the Type I IGF receptor mediates these actions. However, IGF-II and insulin treatment caused myoblasts to differentiate much more...
