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. 01HumanEndogenous levelObservational studyOther

    In tumor tissue from patients with T2 bladder carcinoma, mitochondrial humanin (MT-RNR2) expression was closely related to alterations in mitochondrial activity.

    In plain wordsIn bladder cancer tissue, the body's own humanin gene activity was linked to changes in how mitochondria work.

    Summary · context
    Here messenger RNA of humanin, succinate dehydrogenase, glutaminase, isocitrate dehydrogenase were compared in tissues from patients with T2 bladder carcinoma in comparison to tumor associated normal tissues from the same patients.
