The most prominent findings were scattered atrophic myofibers that were mostly type one oxidative phosphorylation dependent myofibers, mild increase in lipid in selected myofibers, and occasional myofiber with reduced cytochrome c oxidase activity.

Green, GFP+ myofibers are observed in non-regenerating muscle as well, indicating that GFP+ melanoma cells fuse to pre-existing fibers.

Myogenic conversion of B16-GFP and LLC1-GFP cells was quantified by determining the number of green myotubes expressing either MyoD or MF20, and expressing this as a percentage of the total number of myotubes per field (% of GFP+ myofibers). 10 randomly chosen fields in 3 independent experiments were analyzed.

For detection of GFP+ myofibers, a narrow range of emission wavelength (511 to 532 nm) was used to avoid detection of autofluorescence Cells were collected and RNA was extracted using RNeasy minikit (Qiagen).
