Target Information

Growth Differentiation Factor 8 (GDF8), also known as myostatin, is a protein encoded by the MSTN gene in pigs. Myostatin (MSTN), a member of the TGF-β superfamily of growth and differentiation factors, is a key regulator of myogenesis. Myostatin is a myokine produced and released by myocytes (muscle cells). It acts on muscle cells to inhibit muscle growth. Essentially, myostatin is a negative regulator of skeletal and cardiac muscle.
