Description générale

Thymopentin (TP5) is a pentapeptide produced by the epithelial cells of the thymic cortex and medulla. It consists of thymosin α1 (Tα1).

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Thymopentin (TP5) is an immunomodulator, resembling the active site of the thymopoietin. TP5 stimulates cellular immune responses such as T-cell formation, natural killer (NK) cell and macrophage activation, generation of cytokines, and activation of B-cell for antibody production. It also mimics the polypeptide environment of the thymus. TP5 is used to treat conditions like immune deficiency, autoimmune diseases, infections, and cancers. It has a short half-life and is rapidly metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract.

While thymopentin has been used for many years in the experimental treatment of Sézary syndrome (SS), a rare and very aggressive lymphoma, its mechanism of action is still not known. Herein we show that this peptide acts as an inhibitor

Survival after neuroblastoma relapse is poor. Understanding the relationship between clinical and biologic features and outcome after relapse may help in selection of optimal therapy. Our aim was to determine which factors were significantly predictive of postrelapse overall survival (OS)

The elderly population is susceptible to haematological malignancies, and these elderly patients are intolerant to cytotoxic drugs. Therefore, the exploration of a safe and reliable strategy exclusive of chemotherapy is critical in improving the prognosis of elderly patients with haematological

Immunomodulation is interpreted as a temporary alert in a certain part of the immune system. The activation of immune competent cells is presented as a possible basic mechanism of this phenomenon. In the absence of a primary stimulus, immunomodulation remains

Thymopoietin is a polypeptide hormone of the thymus consisting of 49 amino acids. The pentapeptide thymopentin (TP-5) Arg-Lys-Asp-Val-Tyr, corresponding to amino acids 32-36 of thymopoietin, appears to represent the active site of thymopoietin in that it has all the biological
