Popis: Abstract Background Organotin pollutant tributyltin (TBT) is an environmental endocrine disrupting chemical and is a known obesogen and diabetogen. TBT can be detected in human following consumption of contaminated seafood or water. The decrease in muscle strength and quality has been shown to be associated with type 2 diabetes in older adults. However, the adverse effects of TBT on the muscle mass and function still remain unclear. Here, we investigated the effects and molecule mechanisms of low‐dose TBT on skeletal muscle regeneration and atrophy/wasting using the cultured skeletal muscle cell and adult mouse models. Methods The mouse myoblasts (C2C12) and differentiated myotubes were used to assess the in vitro effects of low‐dose tributyltin (0.01–0.5 μM). The in vivo effects of TBT at the doses of 5 and 25 μg/kg/day (n = 6/group), which were five times lower than the established no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) and equal to NOAEL, respectively, by oral administration for 4 weeks on muscle wasting and muscle regeneration were evaluated in a mouse model with or without glycerol‐induced muscle injury/regeneration. Results TBT reduced myogenic differentiation in myoblasts (myotube with 6–10 nuclei: 53.9 and 35.8% control for 0.05 and 0.1 μM, respectively, n = 4, P 0.05 and P 0.05 and P 0.05 and P
