A redesigned muscle-repair protein attaches to muscle stem cells more than twice as strongly as the original protein.
See the scientific wording
An engineered muscle-repair protein exhibits more than double the binding affinity to muscle stem cells compared to the wild-type protein.

What Would Prove This
Per GRADE and EBM methodology, here is what ideal scientific evidence would look like to definitively prove or disprove this claim, ordered from strongest to weakest.
Systematic Review of Binding Affinity of Engineered Muscle-Repair Proteins to Muscle Stem Cells
Systematic review and meta-analysis of in vitro binding assays, animal studies, and human tissue studies that directly compare the binding affinity of an engineered muscle-repair protein to muscle stem cells against the normal protein, with standardized measurement methods.
Prospective Cohort Study of Stem Cell Binding in Patients Receiving Engineered Muscle-Repair Protein
Prospective cohort study of patients with muscle injury receiving the engineered protein, with serial muscle biopsies to measure binding affinity of the protein to muscle stem cells compared to baseline (normal protein) and matched controls.
Case-Control Study of Binding Affinity in Muscle Biopsy Samples from Treated vs Untreated Patients
Retrospective analysis of muscle biopsy samples from patients who received the engineered protein (cases) and matched controls who did not, measuring the binding affinity of the protein to muscle stem cells using surface plasmon resonance or similar technique.
In Vitro Binding Assay of Engineered vs Normal Muscle-Repair Protein on Cultured Muscle Stem Cells
Controlled in vitro experiment using purified engineered and wild-type muscle-repair proteins, incubated with cultured muscle stem cells. Binding affinity is measured via surface plasmon resonance, fluorescence polarization, or ELISA with multiple replicates and dose-response curves.
