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, Thymosin beta-4 (human) 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 Thymosin beta-4 (human).

    Summary · context
    In this work, we have designed and synthesized three peptide sequences containing the N-terminus (TYB4-n), the central part (TYB4-i) or the C-terminus (TYB4-c) of Tβ4.

  3. 03LabNot a test of Thymosin beta-4 (human) aloneIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    The in vitro effect of the Tβ4-derived peptides seemed related to activation of several signalling pathways and was positively modulated by the N-terminus of Tβ4.

    In plain wordsIn cells, the effect of the thymosin beta‑4 pieces seemed to involve several signalling pathways and was increased by the N-terminal piece.
