Regenerating skeletal muscle contains transferrin and a transferrin-dependent growth factor (original) (raw)

Abstract

The myogenic growth-stimulating activity in chicken breast muscle during regeneration following cold injury has been studied. Muscle extracts prepared at various stages of regeneration were added to the culture medium and [3H]thymidine incorporation in intact chicken breast muscle cells in culture was measured. The extract of muscles on days 2-6 of regeneration contained a growth-stimulating factor iden
