RE: The dog breed whippet can have a mutation in the genes that code for production of myostatin, resulting in the dogs having a huge muscle mass compared to other dogs from the same breed!

[dedicatedguy]

Some scientists believe that this gene and protein could be important in developing drugs or other treatments for muscle diseases

I was thinking something similar while reading this, maybe something like this can one day make steroids useless?

For a lot of people it would be great to naturally grow muscles while having zero side effects.

Yeah, that's what we are all wishing. It seems like the research into this type of treatment is still in its very early stages, so I have no idea if it's a real, viable replacement, but it is surely something that could be a good alternative.
