What does this source report?
RDKVYR increased proliferation in cultured skin cells and modestly improved ear-pinna repair in mice. The paper calls it Imunofan/Thymohexin; older RKDVYR records must not be silently merged with this sequence.
- Population and setting
- Human skin-cell cultures and mice
- Evidence type
- Animal / experimental
- Preparation
- See the original report; formulation details require verification.
- Source language
- English indexed abstract; original language: eng
- Title provenance
- Title as recorded in the linked source or index. A separate original-language title has not been transcribed unless shown above.
What are the limitations?
- Preclinical study, not a human wound-healing trial.
- RDKVYR differs from the RKDVYR spelling in older Thymohexin literature; preparation equivalence is unresolved.
Publication counts are not counts of independent trials. Reviews, translations and reports sharing participants may overlap. Findings apply to the studied preparation, population and endpoints.
