What does TB-500 stand for?
On this site the letters are a research-chemical name, not a spelled-out amino-acid formula. The TB-500 profile defines it as a piece of thymosin beta-4, building blocks 17 to 23, with an acetyl group on the front: Ac-LKKTETQ. Its molecular weight is 889.01 daltons in its plain form and 949.1 as the acetate salt. Thymosin beta-4 itself is 43 building blocks and about 4,963 daltons. A 2012 Ghent anti-doping lab paper found Ac-LKKTETQ in a product sold as TB-500. The letters do not tell you which molecule is in a given vial. The FDA's 2026 review found no published study giving this fragment to a person in any form.

Educational use only. This database summarizes published research and is not medical advice. Where a dose appears it is a record of what a trial or clinic ran, or what people describe doing, with its source attached. Nothing here is a recommendation for personal use.
Part of further names and published absences. Leftover harvested questions after the first two absence sets: more brand versus molecule names, side effects the citations did not count, compounding formulas this catalogue does not hold, national FDA and Australia fields, trial windows rather than an onset clock, named combinations with no interaction table, and oral routes that have not been studied.
