One of the molecular mysteries hindering development of regenerative therapy for muscles is uncovering the precise genetic and molecular processes that cause skeletal muscle stem cells (called myoblasts) to fuse and form the striated muscle fibers that allow movement.

They first devised a nanoscale plastic scaffold and then seeded it with common muscle precursor cells called myoblasts, along with endothelial cells of the sort found on the inside of blood vessels.

They grew these myoblasts by many folds and then put them into a supportive 3 - D scaffolding filled with a nourishing gel that allowed them to form aligned and functioning human muscle fibers.

The fusion of myoblasts is a critical step in the formation of embryonic muscle fibers as it determines muscle size, among other things.

«We were able to identify the receptor BAI3, a protein at the surface of myoblasts, as one of the crucial missing links in the fusion of muscle cells,» adds Dr. Côté.

«During the last step of this process, muscle cells called myoblasts align and fuse together to form muscle fibers.»

Next, he injected a mixture of cells from mice that included myoblasts, the cells that grow into muscle, in the cavities of the scaffold normally occupied by muscle.

Currently, back at the University of warsaw, she heads the Department of Cytology which investigates the potential of various stem cells to differentiate into myoblasts and to participate in the regeneration of skeletal muscle.

He presented results from both SMA mouse models and patients that demonstrated SMN depletion results in muscle - intrinsic defects such as reduced satellite cell number, a delay in the myogenic program, reduced myoblast fusion, and molecular homeostasis disruption.

Goudenege S, Lebel C, Huot NB, et al., Myoblasts derived from normal hESCs and dystrophic hiPSCs efficiently fuse with existing muscle fibers following transplantation.

Following the Neanderthal analogy, this «common ancestor» cell evolves into an early - form muscle cell, called myoblast which further develops into a mature and fully grown muscle cell.

After the developmental phase, muscle cells can no longer be formed from myoblasts but are instead formed from satellite cells.

Other potential treatments after careful consideration of side - effects and that are recommended under the supervision of a cardiologist include medications such as carvedilol and metoprolol or injections of myoblasts (viable cells) into the myocardium (heart muscle).
