One small retrospective human report: 7/12 patients with chronic knee pain reported relief >6 months after intra-articular injection (anecdotal/human data limited). No large randomized human trials for joints (human data absent for efficacy/safety in joint degeneration).\n\n### TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4 fragment)\nPreclinical and in vitro data indicate promotion of cell migration, angiogenesis, and reduced scar tissue in musculoskeletal tissues (preclinical). Human evidence for joint/tendon applications is absent; most data from animal or endogenous studies (human data absent).\n\n### GHK-Cu\nHuman clinical studies confirm increased collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycan production with improved wound healing and skin remodeling (human). Levels decline 60-80% with age (mechanistic). Direct human joint degeneration trials absent (human data absent for joints).\n\n### Rationale for Combination\nThe three peptides target distinct but complementary pathways relevant to age-related joint changes: circulation, cell recruitment, and matrix rebuilding (speculative for combined use).\n\nNo medical claims. Evidence is primarily preclinical or from non-joint contexts.
