Thymulin Dosing Protocol: Thymic Hormone Guide
Also known as: Thymulin Peptide, Nonapeptide
What is a Peptide?
A short chain of amino acids (2-50) linked by peptide bonds. Smaller than proteins. Your body produces thousands of peptides naturally as signaling molecules that regulate everything from appetite to healing. Therapeutic peptides mimic or enhance these natural signals.

Overview
Thymulin is a nonapeptide hormone produced by thymic epithelial cells. It requires zinc for biological activity and plays a crucial role in T-cell differentiation and immune regulation.
Mechanisms of Action
- Promotes T-cell maturation and differentiation
- Requires zinc as cofactor for biological activity
- Regulates Th1/Th2 balance and cytokine production
- Anti-inflammatory effects reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines
