Journal Article
Augustin, H., McGourty, K., Steinert, J. R., Cochemé, H. M., Adcott, J., Cabecinha, M., …Partridge, L. (2017). Myostatin-like proteins regulate synaptic function and neuronal morphology. Development, 144(13), 2445-2455. https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.152975

Growth factors of the TGF? superfamily play key roles in regulating neuronal and muscle function. Myostatin (or GDF8) and GDF11 are potent negative regulators of skeletal muscle mass. However, expression of myostatin and its cognate receptors in othe... Read More about Myostatin-like proteins regulate synaptic function and neuronal morphology.
