Overview
Promotes endothelial and fibroblast migration.
Proposed mechanism
TB-500 binds to actin, supporting cell migration to injury sites and promoting angiogenesis.
What the evidence supports
Most data comes from preclinical animal studies. Human clinical trial evidence is limited or absent.
Graded Animal
Evidence drawn from in vivo animal models or in vitro systems. Mechanistically informative; translation to humans is unproven.
