Results from this study4

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone4

In this study, the peptide 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 the peptide.

  1. 01AnimalNot a test of Humanin aloneAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In rats with QNB-induced memory impairment, truncated Humanin analogues and most tert-Leu analogues were devoid of activity in the multiple T-maze test.

    In plain wordsIn rats with induced memory problems, shortened Humanin-like peptides and most tert-Leu versions did not help.

  2. 02AnimalNot a test of Humanin aloneAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In rats with QNB-induced memory impairment, analogues of the active Humanin core RG-PAGA reversed the spatial memory impairment irrespective of the number of Leu in their sequence.
