Abstract

The disclosure relates to methods for treating subjects with musculoskeletal diseases or with muscle wasting not associated with a musculoskeletal disease by gene transfer with recombinant adeno-associated viruses (rAAV) encoding myostatin inhibitors such as follistatin-344. The rAAV are administered prior to development of diffuse muscle fibrosis in a subject, or the rAAV administration avoids regions of muscle fibrosis in a subject.
