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 oral squamous cell carcinoma cell lines, thymosin beta‑4 gene expression was among 28 highly expressed genes common to both metastatic cell lines.

    In plain wordsIn lab-grown oral cancer cell lines, the body's own thymosin beta‑4 gene was highly active in both spread-type (metastatic) lines.

    Summary
    A group of 28 highly expressed genes was common for both metastatic cell lines, among them some of the known metastasis-related genes such as laminin receptor, thymosin beta-4 and beta-10 and metallopanstimulin.

    Summary · context
    Two pairs of cell lines derived from the primary tumors and lymph node metastases of the same two patients were used to obtain microarray-based gene expression profiles.

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