Interesting trivia

On the tv-series The Incredible Hulk episode "Death in the Family" (Season 1, ep 2), the protagonist meets an heiress who is being given intravenous injections of a drug called 'Myostatin'. Ultimately, a plot is revealed-- the drug it is revealed that the drug is not ACTUALLY myostatin, but is a poison intended to kill the woman.

Obviously, this episode aired some 20 years before the discovery of the actual Myostatin.

Worth mentioning in the article? I doubt it, but.. it is interesting. --Alecmconroy 14:26, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Citation Request

Added a citation request to the claim of John Hopkins holding the patent on Myostatin, as a patent being granted to a naturally occuring protein sounds problematic.

There are myostatin patents, like this one which John Hopkins holds. Probably could be worded better. - Z

A more impressive picture. Probably copyrighted, though. 212.108.17.165 10:18, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
