Thread: myostatin peptide

(Smooth≠Cardiac) I agree on waiting it out a bit, too. -S

Myostatin inhibition WILL eventually create real life hulks. There is the peptide out now, but you would have to use high amounts indefinitely to keep the gains, and the stuff is silly expensive. The real answer is gene manipulation, which is on the forefront of medicine; once the gene is shut off then myostatin will be permanently blunted...we just don't know what the results would be with organs, cardiac muscle, etc....assumably not...

Theres a guy on another board I'm on that is running Follistatin FST-344 cDNA/plasmid transfected via non-liposomal phospholipid transfection reagent (Lipo-Gen), but he was unhappy with the results and was looking for another transfecting agent the last I heard.

Where can one find this inhibitor?

its a little more complicated than just inhibiting myostatin. The current theories are that the real therapuetical benefits will come with a 'cocktail' approach. Inhibit myostatin and increase (iirc) follistatin. otherwise you won't get desired results. the drugs themselves are still in testing phases, early in some cases. You can google this and get more information. bottom line, give it 10-20 years.

I would just wait until there are some tried and tested protocols for this. Myostatin is a limiting factor. So are genetics. Reduce the limits=greater results. In would be in addition to using growth factors. Man, why so negative?

has anyone tried or know anyone who has used the myostatin peptide? It seems that if you can reduce your myostatin you can definately gain muscle, you just have to find something that can reduce it enough. I was just wondering if anyone had good gains with this peptide or not? thanks for your help!!!
