Follistatin Research for Muscle Growth
An evidence-based overview of research examining Follistatin in the context of muscle growth. This page synthesizes findings from peer-reviewed literature.
Research Summary
FST overexpression and AAV gene transfer increase muscle size in animal models. Human ACE-083 trials measured larger local muscle volume, but functional outcomes did not consistently improve. These findings cannot be transferred to native follistatin protein or healthy muscle-building use.
