This hormone is secreted in the thymus. The stimulation of the production of T cells is its primary function, which is the essential part of the immune system.
Another function is to assist the development of B cells to plasma cells for the production of antibodies.
The primary form of thymosin, thymosin beta 4, is a cell-building protein and actin.
An important role it must play is regeneration, protection and remodelling damaged and injured tissues.

Platelets and other cells release TB4 to protect damaged cells and tissues and reduce inflammation and microbial growth.

Benefits of Thymosin beta 4:

• Reduce inflammation in joints and tissues.
• Encourage repair of tissue.
• Muscle tone improvement.
• Calms muscle spasm.
• Between substances of cells, it increases the exchange.
• Connective tissue stretches.
• Maintains flexibility.
• Stimulates the growth of new blood cells in tissue.
• Increases strength and endurance.
• Prevents the formation of fibrous bands in muscles and adhesion, ligaments, and tendons.
