TB-500 – 5mg
$45.00
TB-500 is a synthetic version of the active, 7-amino acid region of Thymosin Beta-4 (Tβ4), a naturally occurring peptide found in nearly all human and animal cells. Specifically engineered for regenerative research, TB-500 is a potent mediator of cellular migration, angiogenesis, and tissue repair. Each vial is vacuum-sealed and guaranteed at 99% purity, providing researchers with the pharmaceutical-grade consistency required for studying wound healing and musculoskeletal recovery.

Description
Overview of TB-500
TB-500 (specifically the sequence) represents the primary “actin-binding domain” of the much larger Thymosin Beta-4 protein. In research settings, TB-500 is favored for its smaller molecular weight, which enhances its ability to travel through tissues and cross cellular membranes. Its primary biological role is to sequester G-actin, preventing its polymerization and thereby facilitating the rapid migration of cells to sites of injury—a critical step in the regenerative process.
Primary Research Applications
This peptide is a cornerstone of “repair-focused” laboratory studies, utilized to explore:
-
Angiogenesis & Vascular Flow: Researching how the peptide promotes the differentiation of endothelial cells and the formation of new blood vessels.
-
Cellular Migration: Investigating the “homing” effect where the peptide signals fibroblasts and keratinocytes to move toward damaged dermal or connective tissue.
-
Musculoskeletal Repair: Studying the compound’s impact on the repair of high-tension tissues, such as tendons and ligaments, which typically suffer from low blood supply.
-
Anti-Fibrotic Signaling: Analyzing how TB-500 may reduce the formation of scar tissue (fibrosis) by modulating myofibroblast activity during the remodeling phase of healing.
