Thymosin Alpha-1
Thymosin Alpha-1 is a 28-amino acid N-terminally acetylated peptide (CAS 62304-98-7) representing the alpha-1 fragment of prothymosin alpha, originally isolated from calf thymus. In immune cell cultures it interacts with Toll-like receptor signaling via MyD88-dependent pathways, modulating NF-kB translocation and T-cell receptor signaling cascades in lymphocyte models. It is the most extensively studied thymic peptide in immunology research and a reference compound for innate immune pathway assays. Supplied lyophilized for in vitro research use only.
