获得性和遗传性肌肉疾病都很常见。因此，更好地了解肌肉生长和维持对于未来的治疗非常重要。肌肉生长抑制素下调肌肉生长。这些研究人员描述了一名肌肉肥大且力量异常的儿童的肌肉生长抑制素基因突变。
Both acquired and inherited disorders of muscle are common; thus, greater understanding of muscle growth and maintenance is important for future therapies. Myostatin down-regulates muscle growth. These investigators describe a mutation in the gene for myostatin in a child with muscle hypertrophy and unusual strength.
