Overview

TB-500 is a synthetic version of Thymosin Beta-4. It plays a critical role in cell migration, angiogenesis, and tissue repair with notable evidence in cardiac and musculoskeletal regeneration.

Treatments studied

Treatment categories

Cardiac repair

Activates cardiac progenitor cells and promotes new blood vessel growth in damaged heart tissue.

Hair loss

Promotes cell migration and blood flow to hair follicles, an effect observed in early research.

Musculoskeletal injury

Drives actin-based cell migration, helping repair cells reach and rebuild damaged muscle and connective tissue.

Ocular conditions

Reduces inflammation and supports tissue repair in eye-related injury models.

Wound healing

Reduces scar tissue formation while accelerating the migration of repair cells to the wound site.
