Resumo

Significance The work reported in this paper describes a previously unknown signaling pathway in skeletal muscle acting through G protein-coupled receptor 56-Galpha12/13. This discovery elucidates a previously unknown mechanism of muscle anabolism and gives another target of investigation for therapies against the loss of muscle mass seen with aging and various wasting diseases.
