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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Thymosin beta-4 (human) 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 Thymosin beta-4 (human).

  1. 01LabNot a test of Thymosin beta-4 (human) aloneIn vitro (cell-free)Mechanism

    In a cell-free assay, Thr148-ADP-ribosylated actin polymerized rapidly to curled F-actin bundles even in the presence of thymosin β4.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, actin changed by a bacterial toxin still formed bundles when thymosin β4 was present.

    Summary
    TIRF microscopy demonstrates rapid polymerization of Thr148-ADP-ribosylated actin to curled F-actin bundles even in the presence of thymosin β4, gelsolin or G1-3.

    Summary · context
    Here, we used morphological and biochemical procedures to analyse the mechanism of TccC3 intoxication.

    In this study, Thymosin beta-4 (human) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Thymosin beta-4 (human).
