THE syncytial structure of vertebrate striated muscle is considered to be formed, both in embryogenesis and in its regeneration after injury or disease, by the successive fusion of many individual initially uninucleate “myoblasts”. K. F. A. R. and Hudgson1 have recently reviewed the current literature on this subject.
