Thymosin α 1

Price range: $126.00 through $216.00 / 10 Vials

Thymosin α-1 is a potent synthetic peptide analog of a naturally occurring thymic hormone. It acts as a primary immune system modulator, capable of enhancing the body’s adaptive immune response. Widely recognized in clinical research, Tα 1 is utilized to study the restoration of immune function in immunocompromised states, the treatment of chronic viral hepatitis (B & C), and as a strategic adjuvant in vaccine and oncology research.

Mechanism of Action

T-Cell Maturation: T α promotes the differentiation and maturation of T-precursor cells into functional T-helper (CD4+) and T-cytotoxic (CD8+) cells, strengthening the core of the adaptive immune system.Natural Killer (NK) Cell Activation: It significantly boosts the activity and recruitment of NK cells, which are the body's first line of defense against virally infected and malignant cells.Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) Interaction: It acts as a TLR9 and TLR2 agonist, stimulating the innate immune response and the production of beneficial cytokines like Interferon-gamma (IFN- γ) and Interleukin-2 (IL-2).Immune Homeostasis: Unique among immune boosters, T α1 exhibits a dual-regulatory role—it enhances the immune response against pathogens while simultaneously promoting the activity of T-regulatory cells to prevent harmful autoimmunity.

Storage & handling
