Skeletal muscle is a major target for tissue engineering, given its relative size
in the body, fraction of cardiac output that passes through muscle beds, as well
as its key role in energy metabolism and diabetes, and the need for therapies for
muscle diseases such as muscular dystrophy and sarcopenia. To date, most studies
with tissue-engineered skeletal muscle have utilized murine and rat cell sources.
On the other hand, successful engineering of functional human muscle would enable
different applications including improved methods for preclinical testing of
drugs and therapies. Some of the requirements for engineering functional skeletal
muscle include expression of adult forms of muscle proteins, comparable
contractile forces to those produced by native muscle, and physiological
force-length and force-frequency relations. This review discusses the various
strategies and challenges associated with these requirements, specific
applications with cultured human myoblasts, and future directions.
