Abstract Multinucleated skeletal muscle cells are stably withdrawn from the cell cycle in most vertebrates. Muscle dedifferentiation, however, naturally occurs during limb regeneration in newts and can be experimentally induced in mammalian myotubes. Here we addressed the dynamics of centrosomes, which are key organelles for cell proliferation during myogenic differentiation and dedifferentiation in a cross-species comparative setting.
Abstract Multinucleated skeletal muscle cells are stably withdrawn from the cell cycle in most vertebrates. Muscle dedifferentiation is however naturally occurring during limb regeneration in newts and can be artificially induced in mammalian myotubes. Dedifferentiation involves fragmentation of myofibers and myotubes into mononucleate cells which subsequently reenter the cell cycle, and give rise to proliferative progeny.
