What is TB-500?

A synthetic version of a naturally occurring 43-amino acid protein called Thymosin Beta-4, TB-500 is studied for its role in cell movement and tissue recovery. Research centres on its ability to bind and regulate actin, a structural protein inside cells, which influences how cells migrate to sites of injury.

  • In vitro studies show Thymosin Beta-4 sequesters monomeric G-actin, regulating the assembly of the actin cytoskeleton that drives cell migration.
  • In rodent models of myocardial infarction, administration was associated with reduced scar volume and activation of epicardial progenitor cells.
  • Dermal wound-healing studies in rodents report accelerated keratinocyte migration and increased angiogenesis at the wound margin.
  • Investigations describe upregulation of laminin-5 and matrix metalloproteinases implicated in extracellular matrix remodelling during repair.

For research use only. Not intended for human use.

Derived from a synthetic fragment of the ubiquitous actin-sequestering protein Thymosin Beta-4, TB-500 is a 43-amino acid peptide that has become one of the most widely referenced actin-modulating compounds in preclinical cell biology research. Also known as Thymosin Beta-4 fragment, approximate molecular weight of 4963 g/mol. The actin-binding domain of TB-500 is centred on the LKKTETQ motif. Produced via solid-phase peptide synthesis.

In vitro studies using scratch wound and transwell migration assays have investigated whether TB-500 modulates actin polymerisation dynamics through G-actin sequestration and its influence on Rac1/Cdc42-mediated lamellipodia formation. In vivo rodent models have examined the tissue distribution of exogenously administered Thymosin Beta-4 fragment, investigating whether the peptide achieves localisation at sites of active cytoskeletal remodelling.

Manufactured in a quality-controlled laboratory to a guaranteed purity of 98% or above. Every batch undergoes independent third-party testing using HPLC and MS-UPLC analysis before dispatch. Vials are vacuum sealed and stored in a temperature-controlled, monitored cold storage system. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis is available on request.

Sold strictly for in vitro research purposes only. Not for human consumption. Intended for use by qualified researchers in laboratory settings only.
