Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

In this study, Cerebrolysin 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 Cerebrolysin.

    Summary
    Desensitization of the protein kinase C (PKC) receptor with the phorbol ester TPA, or inhibition with either 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H7) or staurosporine, had no effect on the increased levels of luciferase induced by C1.
