RNAseq from neonatal mouse hindlimb muscles. Mus musculus

During neonatal development, skeletal muscle grows dramatically by myonuclei accretion to existing fibers and hypertophic growth of fibers with protein synthesis. Overall design: To understand molecular mechanism underlying neonatal muscle growth, we used RNAseq to profile the global program of gene expressions especially involved in myoblast fusion, migration, and muscle fiber growth by itself. We used two biological replicates for each time point.
