Description

About GDF-8 (Myostatin)

A lab-grown copy of myostatin (GDF-8), a signaling protein that acts on the activin type IIB receptor.

GDF-8, also called myostatin, is a member of the TGF-beta family of signaling proteins. This is a recombinant protein; the mature human chain is 109 amino acids long and forms a disulfide-linked pair of chains. Supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder for laboratory research.

Research

What scientists have studied, and in what kind of study: lab dish, animal, or human.

Studied for: myostatin itself [GDF-8] and the activin type IIB receptor [ActRIIB].

That describes the research, not what a vial does.
