Thymalin 10mg
Thymalin is a polypeptide complex extracted from the thymus, developed in the Russian peptide-bioregulator research tradition associated with Morozov and Khavinson. It is an extract rather than a single defined sequence, so it has no single molecular formula or registry number; Linkova et al. (2023) identified the dipeptides Lys-Glu (KE) and Glu-Trp (EW) as active components. Nearly all of the published work comes from that one research group. This listing contains 10mg of lyophilized material. Supplied strictly for in-vitro research and laboratory use only. Not for human or animal use.

Mechanism of Action
Khavinson et al. (2020) exposed human cord-blood hematopoietic stem cells to thymalin and reported reduced CD44 and CD117 expression with increased CD28 expression, which they interpret as stimulated differentiation toward mature T lymphocytes. Linkova et al. (2023) reported that thymalin and its KE and EW dipeptides reduced IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α release from LPS-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and proposed DNA binding by the dipeptides from molecular docking. Both mechanisms are the authors' own interpretations and have not been independently replicated.
