flag Researchers find that boosting BCL6 protein could help preserve muscle mass in patients.

flag A new study from the Salk Institute shows that the protein BCL6 is key to maintaining healthy muscle mass. flag Mice with reduced BCL6 levels had lower muscle mass and strength, but boosting BCL6 levels reversed these effects. flag This finding suggests that combining GLP-1 medications, which can cause muscle loss, with a BCL6-boosting drug could help preserve muscle mass in patients. flag The discovery could also benefit older adults and those with diseases causing muscle loss.
