Abstract
In this review we will discuss the phenotypes of animal models in which Myostatin function is altered. We will highlight the particularities of the Myostatin signalling pathway and describe molecular strategies that have been developed to inhibit the function of Myostatin on muscle. Finally, we will summarise the role of Myostatin in diseased muscle and discuss blockade of Myostatin as a potential therapy for muscular dystrophies.
