TNF-α is a mitogen in skeletal muscle
Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha plays a role in muscle repair. To determine whether TNF-alpha modulates satellite cell proliferation, the current study evaluated TNF-alpha effects on DNA synthesis in primary myoblasts and on satellite cell activation in adult mouse muscle. Exposure to recombinant TNF-alpha increased total DNA content in rat primary myoblasts dose-dependently over a 24-h period and increased the number of primary myoblasts incorporating 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) during a 30-min pulse labeling. Systemic injection of TNF-alpha stimulated BrdU incorporation by satellite cells in muscles of adult mice, whereas no BrdU was incorporated by satellite cells in control mice. TNF-alpha stimulated serum response factor (SRF) binding to the serum response element (SRE) present in the c-fos gene promoter and stimulated reporter gene expression controlled by the same element. Our data suggest that TNF-alpha activates satellite cells to enter the cell cycle and accelerates G1-to-S phase transition, and these actions may involve activation of early response genes via SRF.

In the citing paper
“Briefly, a number of studies have shown that the chemokines and cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6) produced by initially infiltrating M1 macrophages are chemoattractant and mitogenic for muscle progenitor cells, including Pax7+ satellite cells [115–119].”

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.
