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. 01AnimalEndogenous levelAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In rats after sciatic neurectomy, electrical muscle stimulation upregulated the body's own MGF mRNA expression compared with no stimulation.

    In plain wordsIn rats with a cut nerve, muscle stimulation raised the body's own MGF gene activity compared with no stimulation.

    Summary
    Compared to non-EMS, downregulated myostatin mRNA, and upregulated mechano growth factor (MGF) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) mRNA expression levels were observed in the EMS subgroup (P<0.05).

    Summary · context
    In the rat model study, groups of 10 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into EMS and non-EMS subgroups.

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