FIGURE 1.

Skeletal muscle regeneration after radiotherapy. The activation and differentiation processes of the satellite cells are controlled by growth factors (with the involvement of Pax7) and myogenic regulatory factors during the regeneration of the skeletal muscle through to the formation of new muscle fibres. Melatonin induces an increase in Pax7 expression and improves skeletal muscle differentiation, while myostatin acts as a negative regulator of muscle growth and inhibits both proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts.
