Description

Thymosin: Thymosin. A family of heat-stable, polypeptide hormones secreted by the thymus gland. Their biological activities include lymphocytopoiesis, restoration of immunological competence and enhancement of expression of T-cell characteristics and function. They have therapeutic potential in patients having primary or secondary immunodeficiency diseases, cancer or diseases related to aging.

Dosage Studied

Thymosin-5 introduction during 3 days after birth in the dosage of 50 g proved to eliminate the epithelial canals of rat thymus in 3, 7 days of the postnatal period. The optimum dosage of thymosins seemed to be in the 200- to 500-mug range.
