Research Use Only. This product is not a drug and is not intended for human or veterinary use, or to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
TB-500 is a synthetic peptide corresponding to an active fragment of Thymosin Beta-4 (Tβ4), a naturally occurring, 43-amino-acid actin-binding protein found across a wide range of mammalian tissues. The fragment supplied by Pet & Peps Research is chemically synthesized to a purity of at least 99% by HPLC and provided as a stable, lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder, allowing precise handling under controlled laboratory conditions. As an actin-sequestering peptide class, it is characterized in the scientific literature primarily through its interactions with cytoskeletal dynamics in vitro.
Within companion-animal research programs, TB-500 is studied as a reference compound in laboratory models relevant to canine and feline biology. Investigators have examined it in the context of cell migration and tissue-repair models, where the behavior of actin-binding peptides is of interest for understanding fundamental cellular processes. It is also referenced in benchtop and ex vivo studies exploring connective-tissue and cytoskeletal biology, positioning it as a tool compound for mechanistic investigation rather than a therapeutic entity.
This material is intended solely for in vitro and laboratory research applications conducted by qualified professionals. Pet & Peps Research supplies TB-500 to support reproducible, well-controlled experimental design, with each lot characterized for identity and purity. It is offered exclusively as a Research Use Only reagent and is not a drug, supplement, or veterinary product; it is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition in humans or animals.
