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.

  1. 01AnimalEndogenous levelAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In rats with local muscle damage, MGF expression preceded M-cadherin expression, a satellite cell activation marker.

    In plain wordsIn rats with muscle damage, the body's own MGF appeared before a marker of muscle stem cell activation.

    Summary
    It was found that the following local damage MGF expression preceded that of M-cad whereas IGF-IEa peaked later than M-cad.

    Summary · context
    To investigate this activation mechanism, local damage was induced by stretch combined with electrical stimulation or injection of bupivacaine in the rat anterior tibialis muscle and the time course of regeneration followed morphologically.

    This result measures the body's own MGF / PEG-MGF. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
