Outline of Final Research Achievements

Myocutaneous flaps are clinically used for reconstruction of tissue defect, which is caused by the operations for oral cancer. However, restricted movement and power reduction of muscle frequently occurred. In this study, we tried to regenerate muscle cells from several kinds of cells, such as human adipose derived stem cell, human fatal fibroblast, and human bone marrow stem cell, by induction of MyoD family and Pax-7 genes, which are important for muscle differentiation. In the transfectants, α-actinin and α-SMA, two specific markers of myogenesis, were detected, suggesting that MyoD family and Pax-7 genes might be important factors of regeneration of muscle.
