Systemic administration of monovalent follistatin-like 3-Fc-fusion protein increases muscle mass in mice

Takayuki Ozawa et al.

Summary: Targeting the signaling pathway of GDF8 is considered a promising strategy to increase muscle mass, with FSTL3 being an endogenous antagonist that can neutralize activin, GDF8, and GDF11. The use of monovalent FSTL3-Fc has shown to effectively promote muscle growth, overcoming challenges faced by current anti-GDF8 therapies.

Proposal for the binding mode of the 23-mer inhibitory peptide to myostatin

Tomo Asari et al.

Summary: Inhibition of myostatin is a promising approach for treating muscle wasting disorders. Through docking simulations of a 23-mer peptide with myostatin, key residues and interaction sites were identified, providing insights for future inhibitor design.

Strategic structure-activity relationship study on a follistatin-derived myostatin inhibitory peptide

Mariko Saitoh et al.

Summary: This study focused on the hydrophobic residues of DF-3 and designed a more potent peptide DF-100, which showed twice the inhibitory ability as DF-3 by replacing a methionine residue with homophenylalanine. This report provides a new platform for a 14-mer peptide muscle enhancer.

Recent Applications of Retro-Inverso Peptides

Nunzianna Doti et al.

Summary: Retro-inverso peptides, possessing reversed sequences and chirality compared to parent molecules, show promise as more stable surrogates with increased potential as drugs, especially in specific cases. However, their inability to adopt the 3D structure of parent peptides requires careful evaluation and investigation of their applications on a case-by-case basis.
