Involvement of Acetylcholine and Na+,K+-ATPase in the Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Growth in a Chicken Embryo
Recently, much attention has been paid to the discussion of the trophic function of the nervous system and its involvement in triggering the signaling cascades that regulate cellular metabolism.

-ATPase in the regulation of skeletal muscle growth was evaluated in 10–12-day-old chicken embryos under conditions of organotypic tissue culture. Acetylcholine had a maximum trophotropic effect at a concentration 10

M. An inhibitory analysis proved the involvement of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) in this effect. Ouabain regulated the growth of skeletal muscle explants in a dose-dependent manner. At concentrations comparable to the physiological, it stimulated the growth of experimental explants by 33% compared to the control value. Ouabain was found to have myotoxic properties in the concentration range of 10
