Striated muscles are the skeletal and cardiac muscles that have distinct bands when viewed by a microscope. Although skeletal and cardiac muscles appear similar, they originate from different progenitor cells and use different evolutionarily conserved networks of transcription factors and non-coding RNAs to regulate the programs controlling cell differentiation and morphogenesis during development. Elucidating the genetic networks that govern striated muscle development not only yields insights into general principles of organogenesis, but also facilitates therapies for skeletal and cardiac muscle diseases.

Abstract
Striated muscles are the skeletal and cardiac muscles that have distinct bands when viewed by a microscope. Although skeletal and cardiac muscles appear similar, they originate from different progenitor cells and use different evolutionarily conserved networks of transcription factors and non-coding RNAs to regulate the programs controlling cell differentiation and morphogenesis during development. Elucidating the genetic networks that govern striated muscle development not only yields insights into general principles of organogenesis, but also facilitates therapies for skeletal and cardiac muscle diseases.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
