In human mesenchymal stem cells during replicative ageing, the AED peptide activated gene expression and synthesis of the chondrogenic proteins SOX9, aggrecan, type II collagen and COMP.

What the evidence says

six tiers, never blended

preclinical — animal, cell or mechanistic work — not yet about people

every claim resolves to its source

Evidence, kept apart

The Atlas never mixes evidence types into one blob. Each claim below carries the tier it actually sits in; an unresolved citation is shown and does not move the page.
