bioactive collagen peptides improve clinical signs of naturally occurring osteoarthritis in horses: a pilot study
Research demonstrates that oral specific bioactive collagen peptides BCP-500 and TB-157 at 25 g and 50 g/day for 12 weeks significantly improved lameness, flexion pain, mobility, and willingness to run in horses with mild to moderate osteoarthritis, with stronger clinical effects observed at the 50 g dose.
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry
Development of an LC/MS method for the detection of TB-500 (N-acetylated LKKTETQ) and its metabolites in equine plasma and urine
TB-500 contains the synthetic peptide LKKTETQ derived from thymosin β4 and is claimed to support wound healing and tissue repair. This study developed a sensitive LC/MS method to detect TB-500 and its metabolites in equine urine and plasma to control its misuse in equine sports.
