Figure Legend Snippet: SCE changes cell morphology during myogenic differentiation. C2C12 myoblasts were cultured in growth medium until 80% confluence and then changed to DMEM containing 2% horse serum and 1, 5 and 10 ng/ml SCE for 5 days. The medium was changed every 2 days and fresh SCE was added. (A) Cell viability was assessed using the XTT assay (n=6 per group). (B) Images of morphological changes were obtained using light microscopy at the end of the experiment (5 days) (n=4 per group). Bar, 50 µm. SCE, Saururus chinensis (Lour.) Baill. Extract.
Techniques Used: Cell Culture, XTT Assay, Light Microscopy
Figure Legend Snippet: SCE promotes myotube formation by C2C12 cells. C2C12 myoblasts were cultured in a DMEM containing 2% horse serum and SCE (0,1, 5 and 10 ng/ml) for 5 days. (A) Immunofluorescence staining for the myotube marker, MyHC (green), and the nuclei marker, DAPI (blue), revealed myotube formation by C2C12 cells (n=4 per group). (B) Myotube diameters in randomly selected fields were quantified using an image analysis program. ***P<0.01 vs. the control group. Scale bar, 50 µm. SCE, Saururus chinensis (Lour.) Baill. Extract.
Techniques Used: Cell Culture, Immunofluorescence, Staining, Marker, Control
Figure Legend Snippet: SCE increases the expression of muscle-specific factors related to myogenesis. C2C12 myoblasts were induced to differentiate in DMEM containing 2% horse serum, treated for 5 days with different concentrations of SCE (1, 5 and 10 ng/ml), and analyzed by (A) RT-qPCR (n=3 per group) and (B) western blotting (n=3 per group). The expression of MyHC, MyoD, myogenin and Myf5 over the time course of myogenesis was detected through (C) RT-qPCR (n=3 per group) and (D) western blotting (n=3 per group) in cells treated with SCE. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs. the control group; #P<0.05, ##P<0.01 and ###P<0.001 vs. the SCE-treated group at the corresponding indicated times. Non-β-catenin and β-catenin were detected by western blotting depending on (E) the concentration or (F) the time of SCE. SCE, Saururus chinensis (Lour.) Baill. extract; RT-qPCR, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR; MyHC, myosin heavy chain; MyoD, myogenic differentiation 1; Myf5, Myogenic Factor 5.
Techniques Used: Expressing, Quantitative RT-PCR, Western Blot, Control, Concentration Assay, Reverse Transcription, Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction
Figure Legend Snippet: SCE upregulates the expression of biogenesis-regulating factors during C2C12 differentiation. C2C12 myoblasts were induced to differentiate in a DMEM containing 2% horse serum, treated for 5 days with different concentrations of SCE (1, 5 and 10 ng/ml) and analyzed using (A and E) RT-qPCR (n=3 per group) and (B) western blotting (n=3 per group). Cells were treated with 10 ng/ml SCE in DM for 1, 3 and 5 days and subjected to (C and F) RT-qPCR (n=3 per group) and (D) western blotting (n=3 per group). GAPDH was used as a loading control. **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs. the control group; ##P<0.01 and ###P<0.001 vs. the SCE-treated group at the corresponding indicated times.

Figure Legend Snippet: SCE activates the AMPK-HDAC5 pathways in myotubes. (A and C) C2C12 myoblasts were induced to differentiate in a DMEM containing 2% horse serum, treated for 5 days with different concentrations of SCE (1, 5, 10 ng/ml) and analyzed by western blotting (upper panel). Quantification of protein expression levels (n=3 per group) (lower panel). *P<0.05 and ***P<0.01 vs. the control. (B and D) Cells were treated with 10 ng/ml SCE in DM for 1, 3 and 5 days and western blotting was performed using the indicated antibodies (upper panel). Quantification of protein expression levels (n=3 per group) (down). *P<0.05 and ***P<0.01 vs. the DMSO; ###P<0.001 vs. the DMSO at the indicated time points. SCE, Saururus chinensis (Lour.) Baill. extract; AMPK, AMP-activated protein kinase; HDAC5, histone deacetylase 5; p-, phosphorylated.
