Follistatin is a single-chain gonadal protein that specifically inhibits follicle-stimulating hormone release. The single FST gene encodes two isoforms, FST317 and FST344 containing 317 and 344 amino acids respectively, resulting from alternative splicing of the precursor mRNA.
Follistatin seems to reduce inflammation and fibrosis while increasing skeletal muscle hypertrophy in animal models of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). These properties have been hypothesized to cause changes in strength that are significant in the context of DMD and appear to be concentration-dependent.
