- Tendon repair (rat models)
- Strong. Multiple RCTs show 40–60% faster biomechanical recovery
- 10 mcg/kg daily IP or SC for 14–21 days
- Load-to-failure strength, collagen density
- Most robust preclinical evidence; consistent across multiple studies
- Ligament reconstruction (rat models)
- Moderate. MCL and ACL studies show improved stability
- 10 mcg/kg daily SC near injury site for 14 days
- Joint stability, histological healing scores
- Promising but fewer replication studies than tendon research
- Bone fracture healing (rat models)
- Limited. Small sample sizes, variable protocols
- 1–10 mcg/kg daily IP for 21–28 days
- Bone mineral density, radiographic union
- Early evidence; mechanisms less clear than soft tissue
- Muscle injury (rat models)
- Moderate. Faster fibre regeneration, reduced fibrosis
- 10 mcg/kg daily IP for 14 days
- Cross-sectional area, force production
- May reduce scar tissue formation but timing-dependent
- Human post-surgical recovery
- None. No published clinical trials
- N/A
- All current use is off-label and speculative; no safety or efficacy data in humans
