They can interact with some meds, like metformin and certain stomach acid drugs

Research has examined its role in: G-actin sequestration and cytoskeletal dynamics in cell migration studies Dermal wound healing re-epithelialisation, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis Cardiac tissue preservation, cardiomyocyte survival, and post-MI epicardial progenitor activation Coronary vessel development and adult epicardial neovascularisation Neurological research applications stroke model functional outcome, axonal remodelling, and oligodendrocyte progenitor recruitment Corneal wound healing and alkali injury repair Skeletal muscle regeneration in dystrophin-deficient models Anti-inflammatory cytokine downregulation and sepsis model research Stem and progenitor cell mobilisation, differentiation, and tissue homing AcSDKP (N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline) generation and its role as a downstream pro-angiogenic mediator TB-500 and Wound Healing Research In a rat full thickness wound model, topical or intraperitoneal addition of T4 increased re-epithelialisation by 42% over saline controls at 4 days, and by as much as 61% at 7 days post-wounding

Immune balance is another important benefit
Acute BRVO presents characteristic clinical features with flame-shaped, dot and blot hemorrhage, soft and hard exudates, retinal edema, and dilated, tortuous vein in a segmental distribution
