TB500

TB-500 is a synthetic heptapeptide (Ac-LKKTETQ) representing the N-terminal acetylated fragment of the endogenous protein Thymosin Beta-4. It functions as a potent modulator of actin sequestration by binding to G-actin, which prevents actin polymerization and facilitates cellular migration. Research applications include investigations into angiogenesis, endothelial cell differentiation, and the acceleration of tissue repair in muscle, tendon, and ligament models.
