Protective Effect of <i>Pyropia yezoensis</i> Peptide on Dexamethasone-Induced Myotube Atrophy in C2C12 Myotubes

Protective Effect of <i>Pyropia yezoensis</i> Peptide on Dexamethasone-Induced Myotube Atrophy in C2C12 Myotubes

Dexamethasone (DEX), a synthetic glucocorticoid, causes skeletal muscle atrophy. This study examined the protective effects of <i>Pyropia yezoensis</i> peptide (PYP15) against DEX-induced myotube atrophy and its association with insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and the Akt/mammalian...
