Effects of 20(S)-hydroxycholesterol on satellite cell proliferation and differentiation of broilers.

ABSTRACT: In the modern poultry industry, with increasing product demand, muscle growth rate and meat yield in chickens have tremendously changed. Understanding the regulation of muscle development is important to maintain efficient growth and development in meat-type chickens. 20(S)-hydroxycholesterol (20S) is known as one of the naturally occurring osteogenic cholesterol derivatives due to its ability to induce osteogenic differentiation; however, no studies have evaluated myogenic response to 20S in chicken muscle cells. To determine the use of 20S in vitro for the proliferation and differentiation of chicken satellite cells, satellite cells were isolated from pectoralis major muscle of 4-week-old Ross 708 male chickens and subjected to 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 μmol of 20S during their proliferation an
