TB-500

TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4 Fragment) – Research Use Only

Overview

TB-500 is a synthetic peptide based on a small active fragment of the naturally occurring Thymosin Beta-4 protein. It is widely studied for its potential role in supporting cell movement, new blood vessel formation, and tissue recovery. Research commonly focuses on how TB-500 may help the body organize actin,  a key protein involved in cell structure, repair, and mobility.

Background

Thymosin Beta-4 is found in many tissues throughout the body and plays an important role in cellular repair. TB-500 represents the specific section of this molecule believed to help drive regeneration. In laboratory studies, this fragment has been shown to:

• Support healthy cell movement

• Influence actin organization

• Aid in tissue recovery during experimental conditions

Because of these properties, TB-500 is frequently used in research involving muscle repair, tendon studies, wound-healing models, and experiments related to vascular (blood vessel) growth.
