Results from this study2

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

Natural levels measured2

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 young and old rats, resistance exercise increased muscle mechano-growth factor mRNA.

    In plain wordsIn rats, resistance exercise raised the body's own mechano-growth factor levels in muscle.

    Summary
    RE induced increases in the mRNAs for IGF-I, mechano-growth factor, cyclin D1, and suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 were similar in old and young muscles.

    Summary · context
    Comparing 6- and 30-mo-old rats, the aims were to 1) determine whether these markers are altered with age and 2) identify age-sensitive responses to acute RE.

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

  2. 02AnimalEndogenous levelAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In rats, the exercise-induced rise in mechano-growth factor mRNA was similar in old and young muscles.

    In plain wordsIn rats, the body's own mechano-growth factor rose after exercise by a similar amount in old and young muscle.
