Thymosin Alpha-1

Overview

Immunology researchers can buy Thymosin Alpha-1 research peptide from Advanced Peptide Science at 99%+ HPLC-verified purity. Thymosin Alpha-1 (thymalfasin) is a 28-amino-acid N-terminally acetylated peptide naturally produced by the thymus gland, with a molecular weight of 3108.4 Da.

Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water) 30ml is required for reconstitution of this lyophilized compound. Available separately: Bacteriostatic Water 30ml.

Research Background

Thymosin Alpha-1 was first isolated from the thymic fraction 5 extract in the 1970s. The N-terminal acetylation is essential for biological activity. The compound has been extensively researched in immune modulation studies and serves as a foundational immune-peptide research tool for investigations into thymic-derived immune signalling.

Mechanism of Action (Research Context)

Mechanism research investigates Thymosin Alpha-1 activation of Toll-like receptors (notably TLR9 and TLR2) on dendritic cells, leading to enhanced dendritic cell maturation, IL-12 production, and Th1-skewed T-cell response polarisation. Additional research examines T-cell proliferation enhancement and antiviral immune response pathway studies.

Research Applications

• Toll-like receptor (TLR9/TLR2) pathway activation research
• Dendritic cell maturation and antigen presentation studies
• T-cell proliferation and Th1-response polarisation research
• Antiviral immune response preclinical model investigation
• Comparative immune modulation research vs Vilon bioregulator
