Schematic representation of electrostimulation protocol on C2C12 cells and isolation of miRNAs from EVs and cells. Created with BioRender. B-D. Relative expression levels of miR-30a-5p, let-7f-5p, and miR-29a-3p in cells and EVs at 0, 3, and 20 h after electrostimulation in non-electrostimulated (C, n = 4) and electrostimulated (EPS, n = 4) cells. E-G. Relative expression of cluster 1 miRNAs ( E ), let-7i-5p ( F ), and miR-143-3p ( G ) in C2C12 myotubes where miR-29a-3p expression was inhibited by 70% (miR29dKD, n = 4) and in control myotubes (Control, n = 4). H–I. Relative expression of miR-30a-5p and miR-143-3p in non-electrostimulated (C, n = 4) and electrostimulated (EPS, n = 4) miR-29a-3p dKD cells at 0, 3, and 20 h after electrostimulation. Statistical significance was determined using unpaired, two-tailed Student’s t -test and p -values are indicated in the figures. Data are represented as mean ± SEM. Each dot represents the mean technical duplicate of each cell replicate.

The pink contour marks samples with + GelMA; the blue contour marks samples with - GelMA. g-ii) Cell circularity is inversely proportional to the salt concentration in the hydrogels. When the amount of NaCl in the scaffolds is higher, the cells are more elongated. Scale bars: (c) 100 µm. Statistical significances were assessed by two-way ANOVA.

Brightfield and confocal (merged) images representative of cells labelled with DAPI to show the nucleus (blue) of the different cell types (A549, C2C12, MG63, HBMSCs), and GelMA marked with rhodamine B to show the inner phase (red) of the scaffolds at 0 - 9 - 36 g/L. In all cell types, images were taken both under conditions where GelMA was not chemically cross-linked (-GelMA) and under conditions where GelMA was chemically cross-linked (+GelMA). Scale bars: (a, b, c, d) 100 μm. Mean ± S.D. n=3.

(B and C) C2C12 myotubes were cultured in starvation medium only or with the indicated nutrient for (B) 5 or (C) 24 h. Albumin and NaOH were added as vehicle controls in both regular and starvation media in the experiment for the fatty acid (PA and OA). Metabolic activity was assessed using the MTT assay. Values are expressed as fold-change compared with the values of the control cells incubated in regular DMEM. Values are presented as the mean ± SEM (n=3-4). ***P<0.001 vs. vehicle control; § P<0.05, §§ P<0.01, §§§ P<0.001 vs. starved cells in the same group.
