IMB0901 inhibits muscle atrophy induced by cancer cachexia through MSTN signaling pathway
28 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cancer cachexia as a metabolic syndrome can lead to at least 25% of cancer deaths. The inhibition of muscle atrophy is a main strategy to treat cancer cachexia. In this process, myostatin (MSTN) can exert a dual effect on protein metabolism, including inhibition of protein biosynthesis and enhancement of protein degradation. In this study, we will test the effect on muscle atrophy induced by cancer...
