Timozin α₁ je peptidni fragment izveden iz protimozina alfa, proteina koji je kod ljudi kodira PTMA genom.^[2]

Funkcija

Thimozin α₁ je glavna komponenta timozinske frakcije 5, koja je odgovorna za aktivnost tog preparata u obnavljanju imunske funkcije kod životinja bez grudne žlezde. To je bio prvi kompletno sekvencirani i sintetisani peptid iz timozinske frakcije 5. Za razliku od β timozina, sa kojim nije genetički i hemijski srodan, timozin α₁ se formira kao fragment sa 28 aminokiselina, iz dužeg prekursora sa 113 aminokiselina, protimozina α.^[3] On pospešuje ćelijski posredovanu imunost kod ljudi kao i eksperimentalnih životinja.^[4]

Terapeutska primena

Timozin α₁ je odobren u 35 zemalja za lečenje Hepatitisa B i C, kao i za upotrebu sa vakcinama za pojačavanje imunskog responsa u treatmentu drugih bolesti.^[5]^[6]
