Immunotherapy
Thymosin alpha-1, which activates key immune cells
such as T cells and NK cells, is effective in immunotherapy.
Why?
Why does Gangnam Seran call thymosin alpha-1 the strongest in the immune system?
โฌ Check out the video for more details.
Thymosin Alpha-1?
Thymosin Alpha-1 (Tα1) is one of the powerful immune-modulating peptides produced in the thymus, affecting various aspects of the immune system.
Tα1 plays a crucial role in enhancing the activity of T cells and NK cells, thereby strengthening the immune response and aiding the fight against diseases such as infections and cancer.
T cells?
Matures in the thymus, from which it derives its name
Has various types, each with its unique function
Main functions of T cells
1. Helper T cells
2. Cytotoxic T cells
3. Regulatory T cells
4. Memory T cells
NK (Natural Killer) cells?
Main functions of NK cells
1. Inducing apoptosis
2. Infection defense/
cancer surveillance
3. Immune regulation
Those Who Need
Thymosin alpha-1 treatment
Elderly patients with weakened immune systems
Those wishing to maximize the effect of the flu vaccine
Patients with atopic dermatitis, shingles, allergies
Individuals with weakened immune systems due to chronic fatigue or stress
Note that the effects and possible infections or inflammations after treatment may vary among individuals, so caution is needed.

T cells?
A type of white blood cell that plays an important role in the body's immune system
Primarily belonging to the lymphatic system, fighting infections and regulating the immune system's response
Destroys cancer cells and infected cells
Matures in the thymus, from which it derives its name
Has various types, each with its unique function
Main functions of T cells
1. Helper T cells
Regulate and enhance immune responses
Activate B cells to promote antibody production
Activate other immune cells to fight infections by secreting cytokines
2. Cytotoxic T cells
Directly attack and destroy infected cells or cancer cells
Recognize specific antigens and induce cell apoptosis in response
3. Regulatory T cells
Regulate immune responses to prevent excessive reactions and autoimmune diseases
Maintain the balance of the immune system
4. Memory T cells
Remember previously encountered antigens to trigger a faster and
stronger immune response upon re-infection
Enable long-term immunity and the effectiveness of vaccines
NK cells?
An important part of the body's immune system, primarily responsible for identifying and eliminating infected cells and cancer cells
Unlike T cells and B cells involved in adaptive immune responses, part of the innate immune system
Not pre-programmed to recognize specific antigens, can directly attack targets without depending on antigen-presenting cells
Main functions of NK cells
1. Inducing apoptosis
Recognize specific proteins on the surface of infected or cancer cells to attack
and destroy them
Secrete various chemicals that induce apoptosis in these cells
2. Infection defense/
cancer surveillance
Act as an initial defense line against viral infections and play a crucial role
in suppressing cancer cell development
Serve as a key component of the innate immune system
3. Immune regulation
Secrete immune-regulating substances like cytokines and chemokines to activate or
inhibit other cells of the immune system
Play an important role in regulating the intensity and scope of immune responses
