Expression of thymosin beta 4, which is known to be extremely important for G-actin-sequestering in a variety of non-muscle cells, was detected at a considerable level in young embryonic but not in adult skeletal muscles according to Northern and Western blotting.

To better understand how they are responsible for the regulation of assembly and disassembly of actin in developing and degenerating muscles, we measured the amounts of the three G-actin-binding proteins by means of quantitative immunoblotting and compared them with that of G-actin.
This result measures the body's own Thymosin beta-4 (human). Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
