    compounds that selectively target androgen receptors to promote muscle growth

    Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are a class of compounds that bind to androgen receptors in the body, similar to anabolic steroids, but with more targeted effects. They are designed to selectively stimulate muscle and bone growth without significantly affecting other tissues, potentially offering therapeutic benefits for conditions like muscle wasting and osteoporosis with fewer side effects compared to traditional steroids.
