Results from this study2

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured1

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

  1. 01LabEndogenous levelEx vivo tissueMechanism

    Enzyme immunoassays combined with HPLC showed that the body's own thymosin beta‑4 is ubiquitous in mouse tissue extracts.

    In plain wordsIn mouse tissue samples, the body's own thymosin beta‑4 was found throughout the tissues tested.

    Summary
    The combination of EIAs with different HPLC procedures validated these methods and clearly demonstrated the ubiquity of these peptides in mouse tissues.

    Summary · context
    Using this assay and a previously described EIA for AcSDKP, a negative regulator of pluripotent haematopoietic stem cell proliferation, the levels of these two peptides were determined in mouse tissue extracts.

    This result measures the body's own Thymosin beta-4 (human). Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Thymosin beta-4 (human) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Thymosin beta-4 (human).
