Follistatin 344 benefits

From the PeptideBase research library. Educational only — not medical advice.

Studied effects

myostatin and activin A neutralization — dual TGF-β inhibition
skeletal muscle hypertrophy in transgenic animal models
satellite cell activation and muscle protein synthesis relief
gene therapy context: Becker MD phase 1/2a trial safety established

Mechanism

Binds and neutralizes myostatin (GDF-8) and activin; removes the natural brake on muscle growth allowing supraphysiological hypertrophy
