Tweaking a gene makes muscles twice as strong

An international team of scientists have discovered that there is a gene that can be tweaked in order to suppress a muscle-growth inhibitor. This could mean a cure for many muscle degenerate diseases. by acting on a genome regulator (NCoR1), they were able to control the activity of certain genes, and make test mice nearly twice as strong. This allowed more energy to be diverted to muscles and allowed them to grow stronger. when cells from these mice were examined, they were found to be stronger, more dense, and had more mitchondria. More studies are needed before humans can be involved, but it is looking good so far.
