TB-500 is the synthetic version of Thymosin Beta-4, a powerful protein known for its healing properties. It facilitates rapid recovery from injuries and is commonly utilized in research settings to study performance enhancement and injury reduction. Originally explored in human applications since 1974, TB-500 has been used to support immune function and accelerate recovery processes.
TB-500 functions by regulating actin, a protein crucial for cell building, particularly in muscle formation. It works in synergy with myosin to enhance metabolism and improve motion. Key benefits observed in research include decreased injury recovery time, reduced chronic inflammation, improved heart health, support for brain function, and faster wound healing. However, some studies note potential drawbacks such as lightheadedness, nausea, and stomach cramps.
For research use, TB-500 is typically supplied as a lyophilized powder. Reconstitution involves mixing with bacteriostatic water, aiming the water along the container edges to ensure proper dissolution. Dosage calculations depend on the powder mass and water volume. After reconstitution, it can be administered via injection into muscle, under the skin, or intravenously, based on research protocols.
