Male Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups (n = 8): C - vivarium control; 7HS - 7-day hindlimb suspension; 7HB - 7-day hindlimb suspension with intraperitoneal injection of beta-guanidine propionic acid (β-GPA, 400 mg/kg b w).
This result measures the body's own MOTS-c. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
