Thymulin (Thymulin (Facteur Thymique Serique))
A zinc-dependent nonapeptide secreted by thymic epithelial cells that is essential for T-cell differentiation. Levels decline dramatically with thymic involution during aging.
How it works
Binds to specific receptors on T-cell precursors promoting their differentiation into mature T-cells, modulates cytokine production, and requires zinc as cofactor.
