Results from this study1

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. 01AnimalEndogenous levelAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In the immature rat ovary, HPLC analysis showed that thymosin beta‑4 levels fluctuated in a manner reciprocal to thymosin beta 10.

    In plain wordsIn rat ovaries, the organ's own thymosin beta‑4 level moved opposite to thymosin beta 10 after hormone treatment.

    Summary
    HPLC analysis also indicated the presence in the ovary of thymosin beta 4, a variant member of the same protein family; in general, ovarian thymosin beta 4 levels fluctuated in a manner reciprocal to that exhibited by thymosin beta 10.
