This review summarizes recent progress in the development of myostatin inhibitors for the treatment of muscle wasting disorders. It also focuses on findings in myostatin biology that may have implications for the development of antimyostatin therapies.

Myostatin blockers destroy tendons
Researchers at the University of Michigan discovered this while doing experiments with mice that had been genetically modified so that they could no longer produce myostatin. The muscles of the mice were bigger and stronger, but their tendons were small and...

New research suggests that athletes who use steroids for a short period can benefit for their entire careers.
Experiments with mice showed that a brief exposure to testosterone allowed the mice to rapidly regain muscle later in their lives.
The scientist behind the study says...
Regrowing hair: Researchers may have accidentally discovered a solution

Follistatin is an inhibitory protein which is found in every tissue type in all higher animals. Although this discussion will focus on its ability to inhibit myostatin and thus inhibit the inhibition of muscle growth, I have to point out that follistatin does many other things all over your...

ACVR2B (ACE-031)….Weird name huh? What’s weirder is how its made.
What is It?
ACVR2B (ACE-031) has to be the coolest and strangest thing out there. It is a monoclonal antibody genetically engineered to bind to myostatin before myostatin can bind to its receptor and stop...
Follistatin 344
You can nag your dealer until he pins you on to the fender of his SUV, but you still won't get any. We're talking about the anabolic wonder stuff that researchers at Ohio State University are doing experiments with. A single injection will change you for the rest of your life...
While testosterone replacement therapies may be controversial in males, new research in The FASEB Journal may extend this controversy to females too. That's because research involving mice, appearing in the April 2015 issue, suggests that there is an association between low levels of androgens...

Using myostatin blockers to grow? Add clen and you'll grow more
Chemical athletes and their gurus in the doping world have high hopes for myostatin blockers that pharmaceutical companies are testing right now on people with cancer or muscular diseases. Their hopes are well founded – animal...
