Results from this study1

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

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.

  1. 01LabNot a test of Humanin aloneIn vitro (cells)Activity measurement

    In binding studies with neuronal cell lines and rat and mouse brain and stomach membranes, radiolabelled Humanin derivatives showed no confirmed specific binding sites for Humanin on neuronal tissue.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, radiolabelled Humanin-like peptides did not confirm specific binding sites for Humanin on nerve tissue.

    Summary · context
    The pure monoradioiodinated peptides were used in: (i) in vitro binding studies with various neuronal cell lines and with brain and stomach membranes from rats and mice and (ii) in vivo biodistribution studies in rats and mice.

    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.
