Results from this study4

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone4

In this study, Cortexin (cortical polypeptide complex) 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 Cortexin (cortical polypeptide complex).

  1. 01LabNot a test of Cortexin (cortical polypeptide complex) aloneIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In laboratory assays, pooled thymus and brain cortex polypeptide effects were linked to thymus-dependent lymphocytes and did not depend on B cells.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, pooled thymus and brain cortex polypeptide effects involved thymus-dependent lymphocytes and did not depend on B cells.

    Summary
    Biological effect of polypeptides from the thymus and brain cortex is connected with thymus-depending lymphocytes and does not depend on B-cells.

    Summary · context
    Rabbit antisera against low molecular weight polypeptides from the thymus (thymosin and thymarin), cortex (cortexin) and white matter of the brain of the calves were cross-absorbed with these polypeptides and tested in the complement fixation test with these preparations

    In this study, Cortexin (cortical polypeptide complex) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Cortexin (cortical polypeptide complex).

  2. 02LabNot a test of Cortexin (cortical polypeptide complex) aloneIn vitro (cell-free)Activity measurement

    In antibody assays, cortexin was antigenically similar to thymosin and thymarin but differed from the white-matter polypeptide.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, cortexin shared antigenic features with thymosin and thymarin but differed from the white-matter polypeptide.

    Summary
    The results showed that thymosin, thymarin and cortexin are antigenically similar, but differ in antigenic structure from polypeptide from white matter of the brain.

    Summary
    Cross absorbtion revealed that antisera against polypeptides from thymus and cortex of the brain contain antibody both against common antigens and antigens specific for appropriate preparation only.
