| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Bimagrumab (Anti-ACVR2B Reference Antibody) is a human monoclonal antibody that blocks activin type II receptor (ActRII), with KDs of 1.7 pM and 434 pM for human ActRIIB and ActRIIA, respectively. Bimagrumab can be used for the research of pathological muscle loss and weakness[1][2]. | [in vivo]
BYM338 (6-20 mg/kg; s.c. once weekly for 4 weeks) promotes an increase in body weight and skeletal muscle hypertrophy of all examined muscles, slow, fast, and mixed of young SCID mice[2].
BYM338 (5-20 mg/kg; s.c. once weekly for 14 d) prevents Glucocorticoid-induced muscle wasting in mice[2]. | [IC 50]
