AOD-9604 (Anti-Obesity Drug 9604) is a synthetic hexadecapeptide corresponding to residues 176-191 of human growth hormone, with a tyrosine substitution at the N-terminus and an intramolecular disulfide bridge (Cys7-Cys14)
TB-500 works by regulating cell growth, migration, and attachment, all critical processes for wound healing
Some peptides tolerate slightly longer - BPC-157, TB-500, and pharmaceutical GLP-1s can last 35-45 days
This methylquinolinium derivative is a research compound of interest for fundamental studies of metabolic regulation
These people use this mix of peptides, BPC-157 and TB-500 and GHK-Cu to get their body to heal in ways
The apparent lack of a direct effect was noted due to the in vitro environment not mimicking the inherent environment of a tendon in vivo
