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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

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 (cells)Mechanism

    In LX-2 hepatic stellate cells, thymosin beta‑4 depletion changed the expression of 644 circRNAs compared with control cells.

    In plain wordsIn liver scar-forming cells, removing thymosin beta‑4 changed the levels of 644 circular RNAs compared with control cells.

    Summary · context
    Circular RNA microarray was conducted to identify Tβ4-related circRNAs.

    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).

  2. 02LabNot a test of Thymosin beta-4 (human) aloneIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In LX-2 hepatic stellate cells, circRNA-0067835 expression was significantly higher after thymosin beta‑4 depletion than in control cells.

    In plain wordsIn liver scar-forming cells, removing thymosin beta‑4 raised the level of one circular RNA compared with control cells.
