Thymosin Alpha-1 2mg

$140.00

Description

Thymosin Alpha-1 is a 28-amino-acid peptide fragment derived from the precursor prothymosin α, renowned for its potent immunomodulatory activity. It enhances T-cell differentiation and dendritic cell maturation, supporting both innate and adaptive immune responses. Widely used in research on infectious diseases, cancer immunotherapy, and immune regeneration, TA1 has been shown to restore immune competence in models of thymic deficiency and chronic viral infection.


Sequence & Composition

  • Amino Acid Sequence:
    Ac-Ser-Asp-Ala-Ala-Val-Asp-Thr-Ser-Ile-Ala-Glu-Ile-Asp-Ala-Ser-Lys-Ile-Thr-Thr-Ala-Thr-Gly-Ser-Ser-Met-Ser-Arg-Glu-NH₂

  • Molecular Formula: C₁₂₉H₂₁₅N₃₃O₅₅

  • Molecular Weight: 3,108.5 Da


Research & Applications

  • Immune Restoration: Promotes maturation and antigen-presenting function of dendritic cells, enhancing T-helper and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activation.

  • Antiviral Studies: Improves viral clearance and reduces pathology in models of chronic hepatitis and cytomegalovirus infection.

  • Cancer Immunotherapy: Augments checkpoint-inhibitor efficacy and supports immune reconstitution post-chemotherapy in preclinical tumor models.

  • Inflammatory Disorders: Modulates cytokine profiles, reducing excessive inflammatory responses in sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) models.


Recommended Usage

  • In Vitro: 0.1–10 μM in cell culture assays.

  • In Vivo (Rodent Studies): 0.5–2 mg/kg via subcutaneous or intraperitoneal injection, daily or per protocol.

  • Solubility: Dissolve in sterile water or PBS; gentle warming (~37 °C) may aid dissolution.


Packaging & Storage

  • Packaging: 2 mg amber glass vial with desiccant pack.

  • Shelf Life: Up to 12 months unopened.

  • Storage Conditions: Store at 2–8 °C; protect from moisture and light; avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.

FAQ

Research peptides are short chains of amino acids used in scientific and medical research. They are not approved for human consumption or therapeutic use but are studied for their potential biological effects.

Yes. Reverse Peptides offers 99% puritythird-party tested, and USA-made peptides. Our products are backed by quality assurance and a loyal base of researchers

Most peptides should be stored in a cool, dry place. Lyophilized powders are typically stable at room temperature but should be refrigerated for long-term storage. Always refer to the product label.
