What is Thymosin Beta-4 and how does it work?
Thymosin Beta-4 is a 43-amino acid derivative of thymosin, a hormone from the thymus that stimulates T cell production. However, TB-500 is naturally found in most cells. Naturally, the gene that produces this peptide tends to be the first to become dysregulated after injuries.
It can control how actin forms strands that provide structures to the cells. In animal studies, it promoted the formation of new blood vessels, wound repair, and hair growth.

Thymosin Beta-4 is a 43-amino acid derivative of thymosin, a hormone that stimulates T cell production in the thymus. However, TB-500 is naturally found in most cells, and the gene producing this peptide tends to be one of the first to become dysregulated after injuries
Thymosin Beta-4 plays a role in controlling how actin forms strands that provide structures to cells. This function is crucial for maintaining cellular integrity and promoting proper cell function.
After injuries, the gene producing Thymosin Beta-4 tends to be one of the first to become dysregulated. This suggests its potential role in the body’s natural response to injuries, indicating its importance in the healing and repair process.
Thymosin Beta-4 is implicated in wound repair by promoting the formation of new blood vessels, a process known as angiogenesis. This enhanced blood flow supports the delivery of nutrients and oxygen to the injured area, facilitating effective wound healing.
Yes, Thymosin Beta-4 has shown potential benefits for hair growth in animal studies. Its role in promoting tissue repair and blood vessel formation may contribute to improved conditions for hair follicle health.
