1. PRODUCT SUMMARY
Thymosin Alpha 1 (Tα1), or Thymalfasin, is a 28-amino-acid synthetic peptide analog of a naturally occurring thymic hormone. Recognized for its potent immunomodulatory capacity, Tα1 is an essential tool in experimental immunology. It is primarily used to investigate T-cell lineage maturation, the restoration of compromised immune responsiveness, and the precise regulation of cytokine and chemokine signaling cascades in preclinical models.
2. STORAGE & HANDLING PROTOCOL
Lyophilized State: Store at 2–8°C (36–46°F) in a desiccated environment, protected from light. For long-term stability, storage at -20°C (-4°F) is recommended.
Reconstitution: Use laboratory-grade diluents such as bacteriostatic water (10 ml).
Stability: Once reconstituted, maintain the solution at 2–8°C (36–46°F). For optimal results in assays, use within 30 days of reconstitution. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
3. PRIMARY RESEARCH AREAS
Immune Restoration Models: Evaluating T-cell numbers, cytotoxic function, and recovery mechanisms in impaired systems.
T-cell Differentiation: Experimental investigation into helper T-cell maturation and thymic output dynamics.
Cytokine Profile Mapping: Tracking shifts in IFN and IL production in response to immune stimulation.
APC Coordination: Studying dendritic cell function and the enhancement of antigen presentation in adaptive immunity models.
