Mechano-growth factor peptide, the COOH terminus of unprocessed insulin-like growth factor 1, has no apparent effect on myoblasts or primary muscle stem cells

Summary

Independent laboratory evaluation of native and stabilised synthetic MGF peptides in mouse and human muscle-cell systems.

Limitations

Laboratory systems cannot exclude every possible tissue context, formulation or delivery effect, but directly challenge prominent mechanistic claims.
