Enhanced Energetic State and Protection from Oxidative Stress in Human Myoblasts Overexpressing BMI1

Summary: The Polycomb group gene BMI1 is essential for efficient muscle regeneration in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and its enhanced expression in adult skeletal muscle satellite cells ameliorates the muscle strength in this model. Here, we show that the impact of mild BMI1 overexp...
