    Summary
    While treating the pulmonary form of oxygen poisoning with cytochrome C or thymalin, in 3 days after beginning to administer the preparations, the relative volume of the lamellar bodies increase by 1.5 times in comparison with those in the group of untreated animals

    Summary · context
    The effect of cytochrome C, thymalin and their combination has been studied concerning morphofunctional state of alveolocytes of the II type (A II) in the lungs of 33 non-inbred white rats at the pulmonary form of oxygen poisoning.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

In this study, Thymalin 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 Thymalin.
