Regulation of the growth of multinucleated muscle cells by an NFATC2-dependent pathway.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that during growth of multinucleated muscle cells, myoblasts initially fuse to form myotubes with a limited number of nuclei and that subsequent nuclear addition and increases in myotube size are controlled by a molecular pathway regulated by NFATC2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systemic administration of the NF-κB inhibitor curcumin stimulates muscle regeneration after traumatic injury

TL;DR: It is shown that the kinetics and extent of muscle regeneration in vivo after trauma are greatly enhanced following systemic administration of curcumin, a pharmacological inhibitor of the transcription factor NF-κB, and that modulation of NF-σB activity within muscle tissue is beneficial for muscle repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Altered primary myogenesis in NFATC3(-/-) mice leads to decreased muscle size in the adult.

TL;DR: A heretofore unknown role for the transcription factor NFAT in early skeletal muscle development is suggested, suggesting a role for NFATC3 during early events in primary myogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a novel mono-leucine basolateral sorting motif within the cytoplasmic domain of amphiregulin.

TL;DR: The results show that recycling, but not delivery, of AREG to the BL surface is AP‐1B dependent, and identifies a novel BL sorting motif consisting of a single leucine C‐terminal to an acidic cluster (EEXXXL).
