Thymalin
Thymalin is a polypeptide bioregulator derived from calf thymus, composed of a mixture of short bioactive peptides; primarily EW (Glu-Trp, Thymogen), KE (Lys-Glu), and EDP (Glu-Asp-Pro)
These peptides operate via epigenetic and gene regulatory mechanisms, directly binding DNA and histone proteins to modulate transcription of genes involved in immune function, cellular differentiation, stress response, and aging. Unlike traditional immune modulators, Thymalin penetrates cellular and nuclear membranes to influence T-cell maturation, cytokine production, hemostasis, and stress protein synthesis.
