Growth Hormone ResearchSynthetic 28-amino-acid peptide

Thymosin Alpha-1

$69.99

10 mg

Thymosin alpha-1 is a 28-amino-acid acetylated peptide originally isolated from thymic tissue extract.

Published laboratory research characterizes it as a modulator of immune-cell signaling, with reported interactions at toll-like receptors on dendritic cells and other antigen-presenting populations. It is used as a research reagent for studying innate immune activation and thymic peptide biology in preclinical models.

What you should know

More detail on Thymosin Alpha-1.

Analytical values reflect per-lot documentation and appear once a batch is released.

Compound

Thymosin alpha-1 came out of work fractionating thymosin fraction 5, a thymic extract studied for its effects on lymphocyte populations. The purified peptide has since been examined in cell-culture systems for its influence on dendritic-cell maturation and cytokine expression profiles. Research applications include innate-immune signaling assays, studies of toll-like receptor pathway engagement, and preclinical immunology models. Its precise mechanism is not fully resolved in the literature and remains an active subject of investigation. Research use only.

Synthetic 28-amino-acid peptide

Mechanism (research context)

Thymosin Alpha-1 has been studied in immune-cell literature for effects on T-cell maturation markers and cytokine profiles in preclinical models.

Why it is studied

Tα1 is one of the most extensively cited synthetic immunopeptides and remains a reference compound in immunology research.

Topics reflect published preclinical and in vitro research. Reference only — not a claim of clinical outcomes.

Scientific background

Thymosin Alpha-1 was isolated from thymic extracts in the 1970s by researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, becoming one of the foundational thymic peptides in immunology research.

Synthetic Tα1 has since been widely used as a reference immunopeptide.
