Chlorella vulgaris Modulates Genes and Muscle-Specific microRNAs Expression to Promote Myoblast Differentiation in Culture

Figure 3

Effects of C. vulgaris treatment on the myomiRs expression at Day 0 of differentiation (a-c) and Days 1, 3, 5, and 7 of differentiation (d-f). The expression of myomiRs was determined in control and C. vulgaris-treated young and senescent myoblasts. The data are presented as the means ± SD, n = 3. p<0.05 significantly different compared to control young on respective day, p<0.05 significantly different compared to control senescent on respective day, p<0.05 significantly different compared to control young on Day 0, p<0.05 significantly different compared to young treated with 10 μg/ml C. vulgaris on Day 0, p<0.05 significantly different compared to young treated with 100 μg/ml C. vulgaris on Day 0, p<0.05 significantly different compared to control senescent on Day 0, p<0.05 significantly different compared to senescent treated with 10 μg/ml C. vulgaris on Day 0, and p<0.05 significantly different compared to senescent treated with 100 μg/ml C. vulgaris on Day 0, with a post hoc Tukey HSD test.
