abstract：:Interleukin-15 (IL-15) is a cytokine which is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, and which stimulates muscle protein accretion in cultured skeletal muscle fibers. Using parental C2 skeletal myoblasts, no significant effects of IL-15 on skeletal muscle differentiation were observed. To test the hypothesis that IL-15 ...
