Peptides for muscle mass and strength are a group of synthetic and endogenous molecules studied in the context of sports medicine and clinical therapy. The medical approach emphasizes randomized trials, safety, monitoring of hormonal and metabolic markers, and assessment of long-term effects on the cardiovascular and endocrine systems. Studies examine mechanisms such as stimulation of anabolic signaling, activation of satellite cells, enhanced protein synthesis, and regulation of inflammation and recovery. The clinical focus is on evidence of efficacy, side effects, and compatibility with other therapies.
The best observed positive effects in humans:
- Increased lean muscle mass and improved strength performance
- Accelerated recovery after exercise and injury
- Reduction of catabolic processes and improved nitrogen balance
- Improved regeneration of tendons and connective tissue
- Better metabolic profile and possible improvement in energy metabolism (in some patients)
