H19-GOF mutant promotes myotube differentiation and fusion. a Immunofluorescence staining using the indicated antibodies of iPSC-differentiated, H19-proficient or H19-deficient myotubes, with expression of backbone plasmid (Blank), H19 WT, or H19-GOF plasmid. Scale bars, 100 μm. b, c Statistical analysis of DMD (b) or MHC (c) staining intensities of iPSC-differentiated, H19-proficient or H19-deficient myotubes, with expression of indicated plasmid. Mean±SD, n = 6 independent experiments, one-way ANOVA. d Immunofluorescence staining using the indicated antibodies of iPSC-differentiated, H19-proficient or -deficient myotube fusion, with expression of indicated plasmid. Scale bars, 100 μm. (e) Percentage of fusion index of iPSC-differentiated, H19-proficient or H19-deficient myotube fusion, with expression of indicated plasmid. Mean ± SD, n = 6 independent experiments, one-way ANOVA. No significance [n.s.], p > 0.05, *, p < 0.05, **, p < 0.01, ***, p < 0.001
