These are all involved in muscle cell communication with the nervous system. The updated FG-profile reportedly also involves a seventh gene – the so-called FST, follistatin, which had not yet been trialed in humans but has shown extreme muscle growth in mice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The Future Times has reached out to GATOO but the company refused to comment on the case.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>We’ve seen it before: complications due to gene therapies\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The World Health Organization (WHO) estimated in a report released in January that around 20 percent of the GATOO embryos are spontaneously aborted; while another 10 percent get some form of unwanted genetic complication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Previously reported complications of the therapy are muscle dystrophies after failed FG-profiles and severe schizophrenia due to IQ-enhancing therapy.
