TB-500

TB-500

TB-500 is a synthetic fragment corresponding to the actin-binding LKKTETQ motif of thymosin beta-4, studied as a research material. It is not an IGF-1 analog. This listing is for laboratory research use only. It is not a drug, food, cosmetic, or dietary supplement, and it is not approved for human or veterinary use.

Research Context

TB-500 appears in the scientific literature as an active region of thymosin β4 examined in cell-migration and cytoskeletal models. This page does not describe administration, dosing, or personal use.

Research Overview

Published work has examined TB-500 and related Tβ4 fragments in controlled experimental systems of actin sequestration and cell motility. Findings from those models are not established as safe or effective for people or animals, and nothing here is medical advice.

Key Research Focus Areas

• Thymosin β4 fragment identity (LKKTETQ / TB-500)
• Actin-cytoskeleton and cell-migration assays
• Angiogenesis and tissue-model work in experimental systems
• Distinction from intact thymosin β4 and from IGF-1
