Research overview
Thymulin (serum thymic factor) is a zinc-dependent nonapeptide hormone produced by the thymus with immunomodulatory activity; it needs bound zinc to be biologically active. Thymalin, a related name, refers to a peptide preparation isolated from calf thymus by Morozov and Khavinson in 1974 and studied as an early "peptide bioregulator."
