SUMMARY
We developed a new cell stimulation method in which magnetic microparticles (MPs) were introduced into the cytoplasm of cultured myoblasts and the cells were cultured in a magnetic field. The differentiation of myoblasts was examined from the viewpoint of their morphology and myogenin production. After exposure to the magnetic field, the cells containing MPs became larger and were elongated along the axis of the magnetic poles. Myogenin, a muscle-specific regulatory factor involved in controlling myogenesis, was formed earlier, and myotubes were seen earlier and more frequently in this group of myoblasts than in the other groups (cells alone without magnetic field, cells containing ...
