01WHAT TO TRACK

Thymosin Alpha-1 Immune Modulation

01
🔬
Innate Immunity
Activates dendritic cells and NK cells. Upregulates TLR (Toll-like receptor) signaling. Enhances first-line pathogen response
02
🔬
Adaptive Immunity
Promotes Th1 over Th2 immune polarization. Enhances CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell activity. Improves vaccine antigen presentation
03
🔬
Cytokine Regulation
Upregulates IL-2, IFN-γ, IFN-α production. Reduces immunosuppressive IL-10 in cancer contexts. Reduces NF-κB-driven inflammation
02BACKGROUND

Clinical Record

Countries where Zadaxin (thymosin alpha-1) is approved for hepatitis B/C treatment.

Subcutaneous dose per injection — approved Zadaxin dosing unit for hepatitis.

Decades of clinical use in hepatitis B/C, cancer adjuvant, and immunodeficiency contexts.

03WHAT TO TRACK

Applications

01
📊
Clinical / Approved
Chronic Hepatitis B — first-line and adjunct to antiviral. Chronic Hepatitis C — adjunct to interferon therapy. Cancer — immune adjuvant during chemotherapy. COVID-19 — immune modulator (used in China

🔬
What is thymosin alpha-1?
Thymosin alpha-1 (Tα1) is a 28-amino acid peptide naturally produced by the thymus gland. It is the active ingredient in Zadaxin, an FDA-approved biological for hepatitis B in several countries. Tα1 m
02
🔬
What conditions is thymosin alpha-1 used for?
Clinically, thymosin alpha-1 (Zadaxin) is approved in 35+ countries for chronic hepatitis B, hepatitis C (adjunct to interferon), and as an immune adjuvant in cancer chemotherapy. It was used in China
03
💉
What is the thymosin alpha-1 dosing protocol?
The FDA/EMA-approved Zadaxin dose for hepatitis is 1.6 mg subcutaneous twice weekly for 6–12 months. Biohacking protocols typically use 1.6 mg subcutaneous twice weekly or 1.6 mg 3× per week during ac
04
🔬
Is thymosin alpha-1 the same as thymalin?
No. Thymosin alpha-1 (Tα1) and thymalin are different thymic peptides with overlapping but distinct effects. Thymalin is a polypeptide extract from bovine thymus, primarily studied in Russian aging re
