Myostatin 1mg
$96.99$83.99Myostatin (also known as growth differentiation factor 8, abbreviated GDF8) is a myokine, a protein produced and released by myocytes that acts on muscle cells to inhibit muscle cell growth. In humans it is encoded by the MSTN gene. Myostatin is a secreted growth differentiation factor that is a member of the TGF beta protein family. Animals either lacking myostatin or treated with substances that block the activity of myostatin have significantly more muscle mass. Furthermore, individuals who have mutations in both copies of the myostatin gene have significantly more muscle mass and are stronger than normal.

Description
Myostatin 1mg
Myostatin is an endogenous, negative regulator of muscle growth determining both muscle fiber number and size. The myostatin pathway is conserved across diverse species ranging from zebrafish to humans. Experimental models of muscle growth and regeneration have implicated myostatin as an important mediator of catabolic pathways in muscle cells. Inhibition of this pathway has emerged as a promising therapy for muscle wasting.
Myostatin (MSTN) is a secreted member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family. Also known as growth differentiation factor 8, MSTN signals through the activin receptors and functions as a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth. MSTN is produced by skeletal muscle, circulates in the bloodstream, and acts to limit muscle mass. Overexpression of MSTN in mice produces a dramatic loss of skeletal muscle and body fat. Paradoxically, mice lacking MSTN exhibit increased muscle mass but, surprisingly, reduced adipose tissue mass. This observation was explained by increased fatty acid oxidation. Physical activity reduces MSTN production, and inhibition of MSTN has been related to the positive effects of physical activity on metabolism and skeletal muscle mass. Interestingly, skeletal muscle MSTN expression and plasma circulating concentrations are increased in obesity. A link between MSTN and proinflammatory cytokines has been previously suggested. MSTN expression is increased in C2C12 myotubes treated with TNF-α, while myotubes treated with MSTN increase the expression and secretion of IL-6. These relations provide new clues to the mechanisms potentially linking inflammation with the loss of muscle mass. Moreover, systemic levels of TNF-α and IL-6 are not increased after a high-fat diet in MSTN-deficient mice as compared to wild-type animals.
