FOLLISTATIN 1 Deus Medical

1 vial is 1 mg

Overview

FOLLISTATIN (Activin-Binding Protein) is a recombinant version of the endogenous activin-binding protein follistatin, which binds to activin, a protein involved in cell growth and regulation of follicle-stimulating hormone. Follistatin prevents activin from inducing cell overgrowth that leads to cancer. Follistatin is also being investigated for treatment of inflammatory disease like asthma and colitis.

Mechanism of Action
Follistatin acts by sequestering activin, a protein that induces growth and proliferation. Overexpression of activin can result in aberrant cell growth and predispose one to cancer. Follistatin counteracts activin by sequestering it into an inactive complex, thereby preventing cell growth. Follistatin has also been shown to be effective in downregulating inflammation in diseases like asthma and colitis that it could be used as an all-purpose drug.

Dosage
The dose of FOLLISTATIN should always be taken by a physician individually calculated for individual needs and health conditions.

Side Effects
FOLLISTATIN may cause such side effects as hypogonadism, cardiac hypertrophy, depression, anxiety, and altered lipid profiles. When developing any of the side effects listed above, the patient should consult this problem with his or her physician.

Interactions
FOLLISTATIN is also reported to interact with inhibin, another protein in cell activity regulation.

Role in Bodybuilding

FOLLISTATIN is targeted in bodybuilding because it has the potential to enhance muscle growth and recovery from exercise. Inhibiting myostatin (a growth inhibitor of the muscle), follistatin has the ability to cause more muscular bulk and enhanced sporting performance. This is why it's a popular among bodybuilders and athletes who are interested in optimal workout and recovery outcomes. However, caution is to be practiced in its application because of the potential risk for some side effects as well as interference with other drugs or medications.
