What is TB-500?

TB-500 comes up constantly in recovery-research discussions, usually right next to BPC-157. Here is what it actually is and how it relates to the natural peptide it is based on.

5 min read Reviewed for accuracy Research Use Only
The short answer

TB-500 is a synthetic peptide based on an active region of thymosin beta-4, a peptide that occurs naturally in the body. It is studied in laboratory research and supplied for research use only.

Where it comes from

Thymosin beta-4 is a naturally occurring peptide found widely in the body. TB-500 is a synthetic peptide that corresponds to a key region of that larger molecule, rather than the whole thing. The research compound is produced by solid-phase peptide synthesis.

How it is studied

In the laboratory, TB-500 is studied in research related to cell migration and tissue, frequently in combination with BPC-157. Like any research peptide, it is a study tool and is not approved or intended for human use.
