The protein follistatin, has an antagonist effect to myostatin, diminishing myostatin's muscle limiting effect.

卵泡抑蛋白与肌抑存在拮抗作用，它能降低肌抑对肌肉的限制。

The more myostatin present, the lower the amount of muscle you can build.

肌抑越多，肌肉量越多。

Myostatin is a regulating protein that alters the rate of muscle growth, creating a genetic muscle ceiling.

肌抑是一种调节蛋白，通过制造肌肉外壁改变肌肉增。

As seen in other animals, the lack of myostatin can invoke unnatural amounts of muscle.

此亦见于其他动物中，肌抑减少会导致肌肉量的不正常增。

With roughly 150 milligrams of epicatechin supplementation per day, the 6 middle-aged subjects saw a 16.6% myostatin decrease and a 49.2% follistatin increase.

每日 150 毫克的表儿茶补剂，使六位中年实验者的肌抑降低 16.6%，卵泡抑则增了 49.2%。

Fittingly, if your goal is to build muscle, you want myostatin reduced, but not to the point of completely removing it.

若你的目标是增肌，你会希望减低肌抑但又不想完全消除它。

Rather than beefing up an athlete's muscles, another new class of drugs, myostatin inhibitors, slow the routine breakdown of muscle tissue, offering an alternative way of increasing strength.

另一类新药，“肌抑抑制剂”，它无法增强运动员的肌肉，而是通过减缓肌肉组织的常规分解来增强力量。
