Interleukin‐6 Signaling Mediates Human Muscle Satellite Cell Proliferation Following Acute Muscle Damage

Abstract

Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) has been implicated in satellite cell (SC)‐mediated muscle hypertrophy in animals; however, the role of IL‐6 in the SC response to acute injury in humans remains to be elucidated. Eight subjects (22 ± 1 y; 79 ± 8 kg) performed 300 maximal leg lengthening contractions (3.14 rad.s −1 ). Blood and muscle samples were collected before and at 4 (T4), 24 (T24), 72 (T72), and 120 hr (T120) post intervention. IL‐6, IL‐6 receptor …
