Lmna−/− myoblasts premature differentiation. (A) Phase-contrast photographs and immunofluorescence labelling of MyHC (in green) and DAPI (in blue) of wild-type and Lmna−/− H-2K MB in proliferation and after 48 hours of differentiation. Scale bar: 400 µm for proliferation and 200 µm for differentiation. (B) Quantification of the differentiation index (percentage of nuclei in MyHC positive cells) in wild-type and Lmna−/− H-2K myotubes after 48 hours of differentiation. (C,D) Expression of Myogenin measured by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) (C) and western blot (D) in wild-type and Lmna−/− proliferating myoblasts (P, Proliferation) and during muscle differentiation (from 6 hours to 48 hours of differentiation). (E,F) Expression of Id1 (E) and Id2 (F) measured by qRT-PCR in wild-type and Lmna−/− proliferating myoblasts (P, Proliferation) and during muscle differentiation (from 6 hours to 48 hours of differentiation). Expression is shown as mean (± SEM) of biological replicates (n = 4). Values are relative expression normalized on Hprt1 housekeeping gene expression. (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001). Full-length blots are presented in Supplementary Figure 4.
