Kisspeptin-10
Summary
Thymagen is a dipeptide bioregulator (Glu-Asp) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson, tissue-specific for the thymus gland. It supports T-lymphocyte maturation, thymic function, and immune system normalization. As the thymus involutes with age (thymic atrophy), immune competence declines. Thymagen is used to support immune restoration, particularly in aging, post-illness recovery, and immunodeficiency states.
Kisspeptin-10 is the biologically active C-terminal decapeptide of kisspeptin, an endogenous regulator of the reproductive axis. It acts upstream of GnRH to potently stimulate LH and testosterone release, and plays a key role in sexual arousal and libido.

Key Benefits
  • Supports thymic epithelial cell function and T-cell maturation
  • May partially restore thymic output reduced by age-related atrophy
  • Normalizes T-lymphocyte subpopulation balance
  • Supports immune recovery after illness, surgery, or chemotherapy
  • Anti-aging effects on thymic tissue
  • Complementary to Thymosin Alpha-1 and Thymalin in immune protocols
  • May improve vaccine responsiveness in older individuals
  • Potently stimulates LH and testosterone
  • Enhances sexual arousal and libido
  • Activates HPG axis — upstream of GnRH
  • May improve fertility in hypogonadotropic hypogonadism
  • Increases brain activation in sexual attraction circuits
  • May restore LH pulsatility in suppressed HPG axis
