## Abstract Myostatin, also referred to as growth and differentiation factorβ8 (GDFβ8), is expressed in muscle tissue where it functions to suppress myoblast proliferation and myofiber hypertrophy. Recently, myostatin and its receptor, the type IIB activin receptor (ActRIIB), were detected in the l
## Abstract The signaling molecule Myostatin, a member of the TGFβΞ² superfamily, is crucially involved in the control of muscle growth and development in triploblastic organisms. A homolog to vertebrate __myostatin__ and __gdf8__/__11__ was isolated from a diploblastic cnidarian, the starlet sea an
