Results from this study3

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

Natural levels measured3

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.

    Thymosin beta‑4 is present in a number of cell lines unrelated to the reticuloendothelium, including myoblasts and fibroblasts.

    In plain wordsIn cells, the body's own thymosin beta‑4 was found in several cell lines, including myoblasts and fibroblasts.

    Summary
    It is also actively synthesized by these cell lines.

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

  3. 03LabEndogenous levelIn vitro (cells)Other

    Thymosin beta‑4 content and rate of synthesis in the cell lines appear to be correlated with their ability to adhere and their motility.

    In plain wordsIn cells, more of the body's own thymosin beta‑4 was linked to better cell adhesion and motility.
