This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18615080 titled 'COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR MUSCLE REGENERATION USING PROSTAGLANDIN E2
Original Abstract Submitted
Provided herein are compositions, methods, and kits for proliferating muscle cells by exposing the muscle cells to a prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) compound or compound that activates PGE2 signaling. Also provided are methods for regenerating muscle in a subject suffering from muscular atrophy, dystrophy, and/or injury by administering a PGE2 compound alone or in combination with isolated muscle cells. The PGE2 compound in combination with the isolated muscle cells can be administered prophylactically to prevent a muscle disease or condition.
