    Myostatin (MSTN) is a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth and development. The skeletal muscle in MSTN−/– mice is significantly hypertrophied, with muscle fiber type II increasing significantly while muscle fiber type I decreasing. However, it is still not clear how the skeletal muscle type...

    Muscle hypertrophy in transgenic mice due to over-expression of porcine myostatin mutated at its cleavage site by Li-li QIAN, De-zun MA, Peng-fei GAO, Sheng-wang JIANG, Qing-qing WANG, Chun-bo CAI, Gao-jun XIAO, Xiao-rong AN, Wen-tao CUI

    Myostatin, a member of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) superfamily, is a dominant inhibitor that acts to limit skeletal muscle growth and development. In this study, we generated transgenic mice that express porcine myostatin containg mutations at its cleavage site (RSRR) to evaluate its...
