    Summary
    Differentiation was restored in C2-BP4 cells by treatment with high levels of exogenous IGF-I or with des(1-3)IGF-I, an analog of IGF-I with reduced affinity for IGFBPs.

    Summary · context
    To address this issue directly, we used a retroviral vector (LBP4SN) to develop a subline of mouse C2 myoblasts (C2-BP4) that constitutively overexpress IGF binding protein-4 (IGFBP-4).
