Thymosin Alpha-1 is an endogenous 28-amino-acid peptide originally characterized from thymic tissue and widely studied for immune-modulating activity. In research literature, the synthetic form is often referred to as thymalfasin or Tα1. It is used in laboratory models involving T-cell differentiation, dendritic-cell signaling, NK-cell activity, cytokine regulation, vaccine-response research, and broader innate/adaptive immune coordination.
