DOI: 10.14814/phy2.16169
Abstract: Myostatin inhibition improves insulin sensitivity in preclinical and clinical models; however, studies investigating the relationship between serum myostatin levels and insulin sensitivity are discrepant. Sensitive and specific myostatin LC–MS/MS assays are now available to accurately… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19010465
Abstract: The primary role of myostatin is to negatively regulate skeletal muscle growth. The gait speed is a noninvasive, reliable parameter that predicts cardiovascular risk and mortality. This study evaluated the relationship between serum myostatin concentrations… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms25168763
Abstract: Clinical trials with treatments inhibiting myostatin pathways to increase muscle mass are currently ongoing in spinal muscular atrophy. Given evidence of potential myostatin pathway downregulation in Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), restoring sufficient myostatin levels using… read more here.
