TB500
Peptide for Advanced Tissue Recovery and Regeneration – Research Use Only
Contains:
1x TB500 5mg Vial
1x Bacteriostatic Water for Injection (with Benzyl Alcohol)
Overview
TB500 is a synthetic peptide derived from the naturally occurring protein Thymosin Beta-4, which plays a critical role in cellular repair and regeneration. Engineered for stability and efficiency, TB500 contains the active region of Thymosin Beta-4, allowing it to replicate its biological activity while offering advantages in shelf-life, ease of use, and research viability.
Each vial contains 5mg of TB500 in lyophilized powder form, suitable for reconstitution under sterile laboratory conditions. This compound is intended strictly for laboratory research and is not for human or veterinary use.
Scientific Background
Thymosin Beta-4 is found in virtually all human and animal cells and is particularly concentrated in sites of tissue injury. Its role in wound healing, inflammation reduction, and angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) has made it a focus of biomedical research.
TB500 is a smaller, synthetically optimized fragment of this larger peptide. By isolating the part of the molecule responsible for actin regulation, TB500 provides a more targeted and manageable compound for laboratory study. Its mechanisms of action are believed to center on enhanced cellular migration, modulation of inflammatory response, and stimulation of tissue regeneration.
Mechanism of Action
TB500 primarily works by promoting the polymerization of actin, a protein crucial to the cytoskeleton of all cells. By regulating actin activity, TB500 assists in cell movement and structural repair. This actin-binding property makes TB500 particularly relevant in models of wound healing and organ regeneration.
Other observed mechanisms in animal and in vitro models include:
- Enhanced migration of stem cells and repair cells to damaged tissues
- Stimulation of angiogenesis, improving blood supply in injured areas
- Downregulation of inflammatory cytokines, contributing to faster recovery
- Support for nerve and muscle cell regeneration in various tissue types
TB500 has also demonstrated potential in models of ocular damage, cardiovascular repair, and soft-tissue injuries, making it a peptide of growing interest across multiple fields of study.
Research Applications
While not approved for medical use, TB500 has been widely explored in preclinical research for its role in healing and regeneration. Below are some of the most common applications observed in laboratory settings:
1. Musculoskeletal Repair
In animal studies, TB500 has been shown to accelerate the recovery of skeletal muscle, tendons, and ligaments following injury. Its ability to stimulate satellite cell activation and reduce fibrotic tissue buildup has made it an appealing peptide for orthopedic and sports-related injury research.
2. Cardiovascular Regeneration
TB500 is being evaluated in cardiac models for its angiogenic and anti-fibrotic properties. By increasing vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression and promoting new blood vessel formation, it may support healing in post-myocardial infarction environments.
3. Wound Healing and Skin Recovery
One of the earliest uses of TB500 in research involved dermal wound healing. Studies have noted accelerated epithelialization and collagen deposition in skin injury models, even under diabetic or ischemic conditions.
4. Joint and Tendon Health
In arthritis models, TB500 has been found to reduce swelling, improve flexibility, and slow the progression of inflammatory degradation. It’s also being tested in equine models for tendonitis and ligament damage with promising results.
5. Nervous System Repair
Emerging studies have indicated potential neuroregenerative effects. TB500 may support axonal regrowth and remyelination, suggesting further study in spinal cord injury or peripheral nerve damage models could be warranted.
