Thymogen 20mg

Glu-Trp Dipeptide Bioregulator

Thymogen is one of the shortest peptides in the Khavinson research catalogue — a dipeptide of glutamic acid and tryptophan, with a molecular mass of approximately 333 Da. It was derived as a synthetic short-chain fragment of the longer polypeptide Thymalin (extracted from calf thymus). The Khavinson group's published hypothesis frames such short peptides as putative gene-expression modulators with affinity for specific promoter regions, with thymogen-class peptides studied in the context of T-cell maturation and immune-cell signalling. The bulk of the original literature appears in Russian-language journals and conference proceedings from the late-Soviet and post-Soviet research environment; English-language coverage is more limited and readers should consult primary sources directly.
