We also examine the role motoneurons play in directing the differentiation of post-fusion muscle fibers. Botulinum A toxin stimulates neurite branching in nerve-muscle cocultures. Myoblast transfer therapy in the treatment of ptosis. Correlation of developmental stage and gap junction formation between chick embryo neurons and cloned skeletal muscle myoblasts. Gap junctions form in culture between chick embryo neurons and skeletal muscle myoblasts.
Myoblast differentiation is induced by nerve transplanted to chick embryo legs.
Neural induction of chick myoblast differentiation in culture. Differentiation of chick embryo myoblasts is transiently sensitive to functional denervation.
