A synthetic fragment of Thymosin Beta-4 that promotes cell migration, flexibility, and tissue regeneration.
01Overview
TB-500 corresponds to the biologically active region of Thymosin Beta-4, a naturally occurring actin-regulating protein present in most tissues and in high concentration at wound sites.
It is studied for its systemic, whole-body distribution and role in recovery and flexibility.
02Mechanism
- Binds and sequesters G-actin, regulating the actin cytoskeleton that governs cell movement.
- Promotes migration of endothelial and repair cells to injured tissue.
- Supports angiogenesis and reduces inflammatory signaling in models.
03Research uses
- Soft-tissue and tendon-repair research
- Cardiac and muscle-regeneration models
- Flexibility and range-of-motion studies
04Key findings
- Preclinical models show improved wound closure and endothelial migration.
- Often studied alongside BPC-157 for complementary repair mechanisms.
- Distributes systemically rather than acting only at a local site.
05Handling & reconstitution
- Supplied lyophilized as a white powder.
- Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water; swirl gently.
- Store lyophilized frozen; keep reconstituted solution refrigerated and protected from light.
