Sustained elevation of MG53 in the bloodstream increases tissue regenerative capacity without compromising metabolic function

Sustained elevation of MG53 in the bloodstream increases tissue regenerative capacity without compromising metabolic function

MG53 is a protein that regulates the cell membrane repair process, and it’s been suggested that it might play a role in diabetes. Here, the authors demonstrate that circulating MG53 functions as a myokine to facilitate tissue injury-repair and regeneration without impacting glucose handling.
