Ultrastructure of developing human muscle: the problem of multinucleation of striated muscle cells
The authors studied by electron microscopy the muscle of 27 human foetuses ranging from 9 weeks to 9 months development. It was possible to observe that disintegration of the plasma membranes of adjacent myoblasts and myotubes which share a common basement membrane tube appears to occur in longitudinally disposed cells of those categories. This may help to explain how further nuclei may be incorporated into well developed myotubes and how the striated muscle cells become multinucleated during embryonic myogenesis and regeneration in vivo.
