LASSS Boosts Muscle Repair Protein | Science News

from Science News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Scientists have uncovered a sulfur-based compound called LASSS that could revolutionize muscle health by protecting and even enhancing a key repair protein, HGF, which degrades with age. Unlike other antioxidants, LASSS doesn’t just shield HGF—it transforms it into a more potent, resilient version dubbed “Super HGF,” boosting its ability to signal muscle repair by over 200%. In mice with muscle wasting, LASSS dramatically reduced HGF damage, hinting at a future where aging muscles stay strong and functional longer.
