The Common Brake on Muscle Growth: ACVR2A/ActRIIA Signaling and the Myostatin Research Narrative
From the double-muscle phenotype of myostatin loss-of-function, to the common-brake model where multiple ligands converge on ActRIIA, and on to ligand traps and blocking strategies - this article follows the industrial research logic of ActRIIA-media
