TB-500 (Immune)

TB-500 (Immune)

Also known as: TB4, Thymosin Beta-4, Tβ4

Overview

Key Facts

Primary Goal: Research and therapeutic applications of TB-500 (Immune)

Sequesters G-actin to regulate immune cell cytoskeletal dynamics. Downregulates NF-kB-mediated pro-inflammatory signaling.

Dosing Information

Half-Life

~2 hours

Typical Dose

2–5 mg

Frequency

2x per week (loading), 1x per week (maintenance)

Cycle Length

4-8 weeks loading, then maintenance

Administration Routes:
subcutaneousintramuscular

Benefits

  • Modulates inflammatory immune responses
  • Promotes immune cell migration to sites of infection or injury
  • Reduces excessive inflammatory cytokine production
  • Supports thymic function and T-cell development
  • Anti-fibrotic effects reduce immune-mediated tissue damage
  • Promotes tissue repair following immune-mediated injury

Side Effects

Research Summary

Preclinical

Thymosin Beta-4 was originally isolated from the thymus and has well-documented immune-modulatory properties alongside its healing effects. Clinical trials by RegeneRx Biopharmaceuticals have explored its role in wound healing and tissue repair, with immune modulation being a key secondary mechanism. Cross-reference: see tb-500 in healing-recovery for full tissue repair profile.
