Follistatin 344

Follistatin 344 is a naturally occurring glycoprotein that acts as a potent inhibitor of myostatin, the protein that limits muscle growth. By binding and neutralizing myostatin, Follistatin 344 removes the biological brake on muscle development, allowing for greater hypertrophy. It also plays roles in reproductive physiology and inflammation modulation.
