Abstract
On normal human muscle cells, the serum of a patient with myeloma producing IgG free .kappa. L chains and with muscle hypertrophy accelerated the myoblast fusion and the myotubes formed were abnormally large. This serum did not enhance cell proliferation.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
