In addition to the propeptide, other binding proteins are capable of regulating myostatin activity in vitro, including follistatin [19], [21], FLRG [22], and Gasp - 1 [23].

It regulates myostatin - signaling pathways, leading to lower action of myostatin inhibition that results in more muscle fiber building.

Not exact matches

The new therapy is based on a protein called myostatin, which normally regulates muscle growth.

Because I was unable to examine the effect of overexpressing FLRG in the complete absence of myostatin, it was difficult to ascertain the relative importance of these additional ligands compared to myostatin in regulating muscle mass.

According to this model, local control of muscle growth would be achieved by regulating the extent to which the latent form of myostatin is activated at the target site, whereas global control of the metabolic homeostatic balance between muscle and other tissues would be achieved by regulating the size of the circulating pool of myostatin.

Myostatin, a member of the TGFβ superfamily of growth factors that is expressed primarily in skeletal muscle cells, is a genetically validated target that regulates muscle mass.
