Glutathione
T2Glutathione is a tripeptide called the body's 'master antioxidant,' playing critical roles in neutralizing free radicals, detoxification, and immune support.
Selank
T2Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of tuftsin with additional glyproline residues, developed in Russia and investigated for anxiolytic, nootropic, neuroprotective, and immunomodulatory effects through GABAergic and neurotransmitter system modulation.
Thymosin Alpha-1
T2Thymosin alpha-1 is a 28-amino-acid thymic peptide that modulates immunity primarily through TLR-2 and TLR-9 agonism, promoting T-cell maturation, reversing T-cell exhaustion, activating NK cells, and balancing pro/anti-inflammatory responses. Approved in 35+ countries for viral hepatitis and cancer immunotherapy adjunct.
VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide)
T2VIP is a 28-amino acid neuropeptide with potent vasodilatory, immunomodulatory, and neuroprotective properties. FDA breakthrough therapy designation for ARDS/COVID-19 respiratory failure.
Thymulin
T3Thymulin is a zinc-dependent thymic hormone that promotes T-cell differentiation and has anti-inflammatory properties, declining with age.
