IL-15 promotes human myogenesis and mitigates the detrimental effects of TNFα on myotube development
Abstract Studies in murine cell lines and in mouse models suggest that IL-15 promotes myogenesis and may protect against the inflammation-mediated skeletal muscle atrophy which occurs in sarcopenia and cachexia. The effects of IL-15 on human skeletal muscle growth and development remain largely unch...
