L6-H2 rat skeletal muscle subclone shows fibroblast-like morphology, no myotubes, proliferates in soft agar, used for muscle and cell growth studies.
L6-H2 is a non-myogenic cell line and a sub-clone of the rat myogenic L6 cell line. It was originally derived from the skeletal muscle of a newborn rat. L6-H2 cells display a mix of fibroblast-like and rounded morphologies and exhibit loosely adherent culture properties. They are perpetuated in a continuous culture as a monolayer. Unlike their myogenic counterparts, L6-H2 cells do not form myotubes and are capable of proliferation in soft agar. For subculturing, cells are typically split at ratios ranging from 1:10 to 1:20 using trypsin/EDTA and seeded at a density of 2-4×10^4 cells per square centimeter.

L6-H2 cells serve as a valuable tool in the myogenic research, primarily functioning as a negative control in studies involving the L6 cell line and its various subclones. They are instrumental in elucidating the characteristics of myogenic differentiation by providing a baseline for receptor expression, chemical stimulation, and signal transduction studies. By contrasting the behavior of L6-H2 cells with myogenic variants, researchers can gain critical insights into the mechanisms govern muscle cell differentiation, deepening our understanding of this intricate process.
