ACE-031

Also known as: ACVR2B-Fc

ACE-031 (ramatercept) is a soluble fusion protein of the activin receptor IIB (ActRIIB) extracellular domain and human IgG1 Fc, developed by Acceleron Pharma as a myostatin/activin ligand trap for muscle-wasting disorders. Clinical development was HALTED in 2011 after unexpected vascular adverse events (epistaxis, telangiectasia) attributed to off-target BMP-9/10 inhibition. NOT FDA-approved; all further development was terminated. Now sold only as a grey-market research chemical. WADA-prohibited (myostatin inhibitor).

ACE-031, a soluble activin type IIB receptor, increases muscle mass and strength in the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)

Pharmacological blockade of ligands for the activin receptor type IIB (ActRIIB) e.g., myostatin and activin A is associated with improvements in murine skeletal muscle mass and function.

Fibro-Adipogenic Progenitors Regulate Orofacial Neuromuscular Junction Regeneration via Myostatin

Background Orofacial and limb muscles differ in embryonic origin and regenerative capacity. Neuromuscular junction (NMJ) regeneration is critical for muscle restoration both histologically and functionally. The relative potential of orofacial and limb muscles to form postsynaptic apparatuses remains elusive.

Myostatin Research: From Molecular Understanding to Clinical Translation for Musculoskeletal and Metabolic Disorders

Myostatin (Mstn), a well-characterized member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily, serves as a key negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass. Its overactivation is closely associated with the pathogenesis of various musculoskeletal and metabolic disorders.
