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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, Pramlintide (Symlin) 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 Pramlintide (Symlin).

    Summary
    More importantly, we find that all three proline substitutions of pramlintide are required to inhibit β conformations and stabilize the α-helical conformation.
