Interleukin‐4 is a Potential Regulator of Satellite Cell Function in Response to Acute Myotrauma in Humans
Abstract
Interleukin‐4 (IL‐4) has been implicated in myoblast fusion and growth; however, the localization of IL‐4 to satellite cells (SC) in humans, has not been demonstrated. Furthermore, the role of IL‐4 in SC in response to acute injury in humans has not been investigated. Eight subjects (age 22 ± 1 y; 79 ± 8 kg) performed 300 maximal unilateral leg lengthening contractions (3.14 rad.s −1 ) and muscle samples were collected at PRE, 4 (T4), 24 (T24), …
