Results from this study3

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

In this study, Humanin 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 Humanin.

    Summary · context
    In this study, we have performed comparative molecular dynamics simulations in the absence and in the presence of TFE.

    In this study, Humanin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Humanin.
