In chronic renal failure, metabolic acidosis increases protein degradation (PD) in skeletal muscle, an effect which in vivo requires glucocorticoid (GC). This disorder is poorly understood, but can be studied in vitro using L6G8C5 rat skeletal muscle cells. Two potential confounding factors in studies of PD in culture are apoptosis and dedifferentiation, both of which resemble catabolic states. The aim of this study was to determine the extent to which these factors contribute to the observed effects of acid and GC on PD.

Stimulation of protein degradation by low pH in L6G8C5 skeletal muscle cells is independent of apoptosis but dependent on differentiation state
