Results from this study1

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

Natural levels measured1

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.

    In human abdominal aortic aneurysm and normal aortic tissue, Tbeta4 was the most abundant of 101 transcripts detected in both tissue types.

    In plain wordsIn human aorta samples, the body's own Tbeta4 gene was the most active of the genes found in both aneurysm and normal tissue.

    1 context sentence
    Summary · context
    Total RNA was isolated from abdominal aortic wall tissues (4 AAAs and 4 normal aortas), and array-specific [(32)P]-labeled complementary DNA (cDNA) probes were created with reverse transcription.

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