<h4>Purpose</h4>Myogenic progenitors play a critical role in injury-induced myofiber regeneration. The purpose of this study was to characterize the effects of oleate and L-carnitine on the overall behavior of proliferating myogenic progenitors (myoblasts) and its link to the mitochondrial biogenic process.<h4>Methods</h4>C2C12 myoblasts were cultured either with no treatment, oleate, L-carnitine, or their mixture. Proliferating myoblasts were investigated under a phase-contrast microscope. Myon ...[more]
