Interaction of the synthetic immunomodulatory dipeptide bestim with murine macrophages and thymocytes
Authors not yet confirmed · 2008 · Primary source linked above
What does this source report?
Radiolabeled gamma-D-Glu-L-Trp bound mouse immune cells; unlabeled Thymogen competed for binding. This supports a shared binding interaction under assay conditions, not equivalent immunological outcomes in people.
- Population and setting
- Murine macrophages, thymocytes and isolated membranes
- Evidence type
- In vitro
- Preparation
- See the original report; formulation details require verification.
- Source language
- See source; English abstract or translated patent text where available
- Title provenance
- Title as recorded in the linked source or index. A separate original-language title has not been transcribed unless shown above.
What are the limitations?
- Cell-binding experiment, not a clinical trial.
- Preserve gamma linkage and D/L stereochemistry; generic database synonyms may be misleading.
Publication counts are not counts of independent trials. Reviews, translations and reports sharing participants may overlap. Findings apply to the studied preparation, population and endpoints.

Bestim
A gamma-linked D-Glu/L-Trp dipeptide studied in immune-cell binding experiments. It is distinct from Thymogen and Thymodepressin.
Thymogen
EW is discussed in the thymus-derived research program. Thymalin extract outcomes cannot be assigned to this defined peptide.
