Myostatin, a member of the transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) superfamily, is a key
autocrine/paracrine inhibitor of skeletal muscle growth. Recently, researchers have …

The links between muscle and bone have been recently examined because of the
increasing number of patients with osteoporosis and sarcopenia. Myokines are skeletal …

Myostatin, a member of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) superfamily, was first
described in 1997. Since then, myostatin has gained growing attention because of the …

Myostatin is a crucial cytokine that is widely present in skeletal muscle and that negatively
regulates the growth and development of muscle cells. Recent research has shown that …

Abstract Myostatin (GDF-8) is a member of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β)
superfamily that is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, and myostatin loss-of-function leads …

Here, we investigate a possible direct role for myostatin in chondrogenesis. First, we
examined the effects of myostatin on the proliferation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) …

Skeletal muscle is one of the leading frameworks of the musculo-skeletal system, which
works in synergy with the bones. Long skeletal muscles provide stability and mobility to the …

It is widely recognized that myostatin (GDF-8), a member of the transforming growth factor
beta (TGFβ) superfamily of growth and differentiation factors, suppresses muscle growth and …

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 …

Myostatin, also known as growth differentiation factor 8 (GDF8), is a transforming growth
factor-β (TGF-β) family member that functions to limit skeletal muscle growth. Accordingly …
