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. 01LabEndogenous levelIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In C2C12 myoblasts in static 3D collagen culture, MGF showed no significant constitutive expression.

    In plain wordsIn cells, the cells' own MGF was not made at a meaningful level without stretch.

    Summary
    MGF which is involved in the proliferation of mononucleated myoblasts, that are required for secondary myotube formation and to establish the muscle satellite (stem) cell pool, showed no significant constitutive expression in static cultures

    Summary · context
    To study the roles of environmental mechanical cues on gene programming and splicing in developing muscle, an in vitro 3D cell culture system was employed.
    Summary · context
    C2C12 skeletal myoblasts were grown in 3D collagen cultures.

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