Myostatin and muscle hypertrophy in bodybuilding: review of regulatory role and drug targets

Myostatin, a negative regulator of muscle growth, plays a key role in limiting muscle hypertrophy. This article provides a comprehensive review of the regulatory role of myostatin in the process of muscle hypertrophy within the context of bodybuilding. By examining the molecular mechanisms of myostatin's effects, this study explores how this protein influences muscle size and strength. Furthermore, potential drug targets for inhibiting myostatin and enhancing muscle hypertrophy, including antibodies, peptides, and small molecule compounds, are investigated. By offering an up-to-date perspective on the role of myostatin in muscle hypertrophy and providing information on potential drug targets for myostatin inhibition, this article contributes to a better understanding of the physiological and pharmacological processes associated with muscle growth in bodybuilding, and discusses the challenges and opportunities associated with developing myostatin-based therapies.Function of myostatin: 1. Preventing excessive growth: Myostatin works by inhibiting signaling pathways that contribute to muscle growth and development. 2. Negative regulator: Myostatin acts as a negative regulator. That is, by inhibiting, it limits muscle growth, and if it is disabled, muscle growth increases. 3. Physiological effects: Myostatin plays an important role in regulating muscle growth and is involved in the following processes. Its primary role is muscle hypertrophy, which means that myostatin limits muscle growth, and if myostatin is inhibited, muscle hypertrophy (increase in muscle volume) occurs. Its second role is the production and maintenance of muscles, myostatin also plays a role in the production and maintenance of muscles. This protein helps to maintain muscle balance by helping to regulate muscle growth. Its third role is to improve muscle function, which can be improved by inhibiting myostatin.
