Journal ArticleDOI

Glucose Restriction Inhibits Skeletal Myoblast Differentiation by Activating SIRT1 through AMPK-Mediated Regulation of Nampt

TL;DR: These experiments reveal that AMPK, Nampt, and SIRT1 are the molecular components of a functional signaling pathway that allows skeletal muscle cells to sense and react to nutrient availability.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Polycomb Ezh2 methyltransferase regulates muscle gene expression and skeletal muscle differentiation

TL;DR: The findings suggest the existence of a two-step activation mechanism whereby removal of H3-K27 methylation, conferred by an active Ezh2-containing protein complex, followed by recruitment of positive transcriptional regulators at discrete genomic loci are required to promote muscle gene expression and cell differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sir2 Regulates Skeletal Muscle Differentiation as a Potential Sensor of the Redox State

TL;DR: Results indicate that Sir2 regulates muscle gene expression and differentiation by possibly functioning as a redox sensor in response to exercise, food intake, and starvation, Sir2 may sense modifications of the redox state and promptly modulate gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

twist is a potential oncogene that inhibits apoptosis

TL;DR: Twin may play multiple roles in the formation of rhabdomyosarcomas, halting terminal differentiation, inhibiting apoptosis, and interfering with the p53 tumor-suppressor pathway.
