    We investigated the effects of mouse-derived DFAT on the myogenic differentiation of a mouse-derived myoblast cell line (C2C12) and examined the therapeutic effects of rat-derived DFAT on anal sphincter injury using a rat model. C2C12 cells were cultured using DMEM and DFAT-conditioned medium (DFAT-CM), evaluating MyoD and Myogenin gene expression via RT-PCR. DFAT was locally administered to model rats with anorectal sphincter dysfunction 3 days post-CTX injection. Therapeutic effects were assessed through functional assessment, including anal pressure measurement using solid-state manometry pre/post-CTX, and on days 1, 3, 7, 10, 14, 17, and 21 post-DFAT administration. Histological evaluation involved anal canal excision on days 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 after CTX administration, followed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. C2C12 cells cultured with DFAT-CM exhibited increased MyoD and Myogenin gene expression compared to control. Anal pressure measurements revealed early recovery of resting pressure in the DFAT-treated group. Histologically, DFAT-treated rats demonstrated an increase in mature muscle cells within newly formed muscle fibers on days 14 and 21 after CTX administration, indicating enhanced muscle tissue repair. DFAT demonstrated the potential to enhance histological and functional muscle tissue repair. These findings propose DFAT as a novel therapeutic approach for anorectal sphincter dysfunction treatment. © 2024.
