How is TB-500 used in research?

TB-500 is a synthetic version of the naturally occurring 43-amino acid peptide Thymosin Beta-4 (Tβ4), which is found in virtually all mammalian cells. Thymosin Beta-4 plays a fundamental role in cellular processes including actin polymerization, cell migration, and differentiation. As the primary intracellular G-actin sequestering peptide, it regulates actin dynamics that are critical for cell motility, organogenesis, and tissue-repair research models. Research interest in TB-500 centers on its activity in in-vitro wound-assay outcomes, inflammatory-marker modulation in preclinical studies, and tissue-remodeling research models.

Preclinical studies have characterized Thymosin Beta-4 in dermal and corneal epithelial cell-culture models, cardiac research models following myocardial ischemia induction, and central nervous system preclinical research models. The peptide upregulates the expression of laminin-5, a key component of the extracellular matrix, and promotes the migration of endothelial cells and keratinocytes in cell-migration kinetics studies. In cardiac preclinical research, Tβ4 has been shown to activate epicardium-derived progenitor cells and to modulate infarct-size parameters in rodent research models.

Additional research has explored TB-500's inflammatory-marker modulation profile. The peptide has been reported to downregulate pro-inflammatory cytokine markers and to modulate NF-κB signaling pathways. Studies in equine research models have investigated its effects on tendon and ligament preclinical-model parameters, while ophthalmic research has examined its activity in corneal epithelial cell-culture models. These findings suggest a multifaceted mechanism of action extending across multiple tissue-repair research models.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything on purity, paperwork, shipping and the research-use-only terms. Still stuck? Read the full FAQ.

What does research use only mean?

Every compound we supply is a reference standard intended strictly for in-vitro laboratory research. It is not a drug or a supplement, and it is not for human or veterinary use, nor for diagnostic or therapeutic use.

How is purity verified?

Every lot is assayed by HPLC at an independent, accredited third-party laboratory. We publish the resulting Certificate of Analysis and link it to the lot number printed on the vial.

Where do I find the Certificate of Analysis?

Every lot has a public, batch-linked COA. Browse them all on the COA page, or open any product page and use the COA tab for that specific compound.

How quickly do orders ship?

Orders placed before 2PM EST ship the same business day. Shipments are cold-packed where required and fully tracked.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently ship within the United States. Requests from institutional buyers outside the US are handled case by case, so contact us before ordering.
