Myostatin and its Regulation: A Comprehensive Review of Myostatin Inhibiting Strategies
Myostatin (MSTN) is a well-reported negative regulator of muscle growth and a member of the transforming growth factor (TGF) family. MSTN has important functions in skeletal muscle (SM), and its crucial involvement in several disorders has made it an ...

Myostatin: A Skeletal Muscle Chalone
Myostatin (GDF-8) was discovered 25 years ago as a new transforming growth factor-β family member that acts as a master regulator of skeletal muscle mass.

Deciphering Myostatin’s Regulatory, Metabolic, and Developmental Influence in Skeletal Diseases
Current research findings in humans and other mammalian and non-mammalian species support the potent regulatory role of myostatin in the morphology and function of muscle as well as cellular differentiation and metabolism, with real-life implications in ...

Myostatin inhibits osteoblastic differentiation by suppressing osteocyte-derived exosomal microRNA-218: A novel mechanism in muscle-bone communication [PDF]
Muscle and bone are closely associated in both anatomy and function, but the mechanisms that coordinate their synergistic action remain poorly defined. Myostatin, a myokine secreted by muscles, has been shown to inhibit muscle growth, and the disruption ...

The interactions of fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS)-derived pro-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines and immune cells support the recruitment and activation of inflammatory cells in RA. Here, we show for the first time that the classical myokine myostatin

Myostatin and CXCL11 promote nervous tissue macrophages to maintain osteoarthritis pain.
Pain is the most debilitating symptom of knee osteoarthritis (OA) that can even persist after total knee replacement. The severity and duration of pain do not correlate well with joint tissue alterations, suggesting other mechanisms may drive pain ...

Myostatin is associated with the presence and development of acute-on-chronic liver failure
Background & Aims Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) has been linked to different pathophysiological mechanisms, including systemic inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Cachexia in chronic heart failure (HF) is a major clinical problem that is still underestimated for its impact on morbidity, mortality, and healthcare expenditures. The pathophysiology of cardiac cachexia is characterized by a catabolic/anabolic imbalance.
