Product Description: The product contains the polyhedrin protein co-crystalized with Human Follistatin. Follistatin is an autocrine, activin-binding protein that is ubiquitously expressed with highest expression levels being in the ovary and skin. Follistatin negatively regulates the signaling of Transforming Growth Factor β (TGF-β) family members, such as activin, bone morphogenic proteins (BMP), myostatin, Growth Differentiation Factor 11 (GDF-11), and TGF-β1. Follistatin functions as an antagonist by binding TGF-β family members to block interaction with their signaling receptors. Follistatin also inhibits the secretion of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) from the anterior pituitary.
