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.

    In human cholangiocarcinoma, thymosin β4 was diffusely overexpressed in peripheral-type tumours, one of the protein differences between peripheral and hilar subtypes.

    In plain wordsIn bile duct cancer tissue, the body's own thymosin β4 was found at higher levels in peripheral-type tumours.
