Abstract
⺠Expression of Bmp4 is increased with progression of myogenesis. ⺠Proliferating myoblasts express Bmp4. ⺠Rgm c, a co-receptor to enhance Bmp signaling, is predominantly expressed in myotubes. ⺠Down-regulation of Bmp signal components inhibits myotube differentiation/maturation. ⺠Transcription of Bmp4 is repressed by the presence of myotubes.
