Hemin enhances differentiation and maturation of cultured regenerated skeletal myotubes
Abstract
Satellite cells, isolated from marcaine‐damaged rat skeletal muscle, differentiate in culture to form contracting, cross‐striated myotubes. Addition of 20 μM hemin (ferriprotoporphyrin IX chloride) to the culture medium resulted in increases in the number, size, and alignment of myotubes; in the number of myotubes that exhibited cross‐striations; and in the strength and frequency of myotube contractions. Hemin increased satellite cell fusion by 27%, but decreased cell proliferative rate by 30%. Hemin increased the specific activity of creatine kinase (CK), a sensitive indicator of muscle differentiation, by 157%. Separation of CK isoenzymes by agarose gel electrophoresis showed that hemin increased only the muscle‐specific CK isoenzymes (MM‐CK and MB‐CK). Thus, hemin seems to duplicate some of the effects of innervation on cultured myotubes by increasing contraction frequency and strength, appearance of cross‐striations, and muscle‐specific isoenzymes. In contrast, 3‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazole, an inhibitor of heme biosynthesis, decreased the number of cross‐striated myotubes, the strength and frequency of myotube contractions, and CK activity. These inhibitory effects were reversed by hemin. Collectively, these results demonstrate a physiologically significant role for heme in myotube maturation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
