Rapamycin suppresses postnatal muscle hypertrophy induced by myostatin-inhibition accompanied by transcriptional suppression of the Akt/mTOR pathway
Myostatin (MSTN) is a well-known negative growth factor of muscle mass, and studies have shown that MSTN-inhibition would be a potential strategy to treat muscle atrophy seen in various clinical conditions. Recent studies suggest that MSTN-inhibition induces skeletal muscle hypertrophy through up-re...
