  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In hypophysectomized birds, Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly had a less pronounced effect on recovery of thymic structure than Lys-Glu-Asp-Gly.

    In plain wordsIn birds with the pituitary gland removed, Epitalon helped thymus recovery less than the peptide Lys-Glu-Asp-Gly.
