SC79 rescued myoblast from SM-induced inhibition of C2C12 myogenesis. C2C12 myoblasts were incubated under SM in either the presence or absence of 10 μM SC79 for 24 h, and then were induced to differentiate under 1 g for 48 h. (A) Cells were lysed and subjected to western blotting. (B) Quantitative RT-PCR was performed to analyze the relative levels of MHC, IGF2, and FST. Mouse GAPDH was used to normalize gene expression (n = 6). **P < 0.01 versus undifferentiated control; ##P < 0.01 versus differentiated control without pre-SM; §§P < 0.01 versus differentiated control with pre-SM. Abbreviations: simulated microgravity (SM); differentiation (Diff); myosin heavy chain (MHC); insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2); follistatin (FST); simulated microgravity for 24 h before the induction of differentiation (Pre-SM). Data are expressed as mean ± SD, with Mann-Whitney U test performed as indicated.
