Myoblasts and muscle satellite cells have the potential to transdifferentiate into adipocytes or adipocyte-like cells. Previous studies suggest that mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) is critical to adipogenic trans-differentiation of muscle cells. ERK1/2, P38 and JNK are three major MAPK family members; their activation and regulatory functions during adipogenic trans-differentiation of myoblasts are investigated.
