Discover ACE-031, the Myostatin Marauder. Learn about this soluble activin receptor that breaks genetic muscle barriers and creates dramatic hypertrophy through

Forged in Acceleron Pharma's research facilities, ACE-031 emerged as THE MYOSTATIN MARAUDER, a genetic revolution wrapped in a fusion protein. This soluble activin receptor type IIB (ActRIIB) fusion protein functions as a molecular ligand trap, intercepting and neutralizing the signals that tell your muscles to stop growing. Like Captain America's shield merged with Iron Man's tech, ACE-031 combines two powerful systems into one unstoppable force.
ACE-031 disrupts the TGF-beta superfamily signaling pathway by acting as a soluble decoy receptor, circulating through the bloodstream to hunt down myostatin and activin A before they can reach their targets. This dual-inhibition approach (targeting both myostatin AND activin A) produces significantly greater muscle growth than targeting myostatin alone. By binding these negative regulators, ACE-031 effectively disarms muscle growth inhibitors.
Phase I studies used 0.02-3 mg/kg single doses in healthy women. Phase II DMD trials used multiple regimens every 2-4 weeks. 2025 marmoset studies used chronic dosing over 14 weeks with significant results. Half-life of 10-15 days enables sustained effects. IMPORTANT: ACE-031 is currently NOT FDA-approved for human use. All clinical trials have been suspended.
Documented side effects include epistaxis (nosebleeds), telangiectasias (spider veins), gum bleeding, and injection site reactions. These effects result from BMP-9 inhibition affecting vascular remodeling, not from myostatin blockade itself. Newer compounds like KER-065 show similar muscle benefits without vascular complications.
