Metformin regulates myoblast differentiation through an AMPK-dependent mechanism.
This study aims to investigate how metformin (Met) affects muscle tissue by evaluating the drug effects on proliferating, differentiating, and differentiated C2C12 cells. Moreover, we also investigated the role of 5'-adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in the mechanism of ac...
