The role of insulin andl-thyroxine (L-T4) in stimulating myoblast proliferation and differentiation was investigatedin vitro. A superphysiological concentration of insulin or a physiological concentration of L-T4was added to cultures of myoblasts from 11-day-old chick embryo thigh muscle, grown in serum-free DM-153 medium. While the addition of insulin resulted in an increase in the total number of cells, in the extent of fusion, and in the creatine phosphokinase (CPK) activity, myotubes changed into globular structures which tended to degenerate rapidly. On the other hand, while the addition of L-T4had less effect on myogenesis, myotubes retained their differentiated state longer. Furthermore, the two hormones exhibited synergistic effects. An increase in the initial cell density resulted in an increase in the amount of protein and CPK activity, irrespective of the presence or absence of the hormones. This suggests that the effect of insulin and L-T4on myogenesis is not a differentiation-specific effect, but rather an indirect result of cell proliferation.
