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 mice with muscle contusion, macrophage depletion with CL-liposomes decreased MGF expression in the late stage of regeneration.

    In plain wordsIn mice, removing macrophages lowered the body's own MGF gene activity late in muscle repair.

    Summary
    In addition, CL-liposomes treatment decreased the expression of regulatory factors of muscle regeneration (HGF, uPA, COX-2, IGF-1, MGF, FGF6) and increased the expression of inflammatory cytokines (TGF-β1, TNF-α, IL-1β, RANTES) in the late stage of regeneration.

    Summary · context
    One hundred and twelve C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into muscle contusion and macrophages depleted groups.

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