Özet

Background: Primary myoblast cell cultures display the phenotypic characteristics and genetic defects of the donor tissue and represent an in vitro model system reflecting the disease pathology. They have been generated only from freshly harvested tissue biopsies. Here, we describe a novel technique to establish myoblast cell cultures from cryopreserved skeletal muscle biopsy tissues that are useful for diagnostic and research purposes.
