Serum thymic factor
Product Specifications
UNSPSC Description
Serum thymic factor (Thymulin) is a zinc-dependent immunomodulatory peptide hormone, which can be produced by the thymic epithelial cells. Serum thymic factor stimulates the release of hormones from the pituitary gland, exhibits hypophysiotropic activity. Serum thymic factor protects rats from Cephaloridine (HY-B2072)-induced nephrotoxicity by inhibiting ERK activation. Serum thymic factor exhibits anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Serum thymic factor can be used in research about endocrine, reproductive, neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases[1][2][3][4].
