Results from this study1

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

Natural levels measured1

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

  1. 01HumanEndogenous levelNon-randomized trialOther

    In young and older men, MGF mRNA expression during retraining after immobility did not differ by age.

    In plain wordsIn young and older men, the body's own MGF gene activity during muscle retraining did not differ by age.

    Summary
    No age-related differences were observed in mRNA expression of IGF-1Ea, MGF, MyoD1 and HGF with retraining
    1 context sentence
    Summary · context
    Retraining consisted of 4 weeks of supervised resistive exercise in 9 older (OM: mean age) 67.3, range 61-74 yrs) and 11 young (YM: mean age 24.4, range 21-30 yrs) males.

    This result measures the body's own MGF / PEG-MGF. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
