01Mechanism of Action

Parameter
Chonluten
TB-500
Primary target
Bronchial epithelial cells and respiratory mucosa tissue complexes
G-actin (sequestering) + cell-surface integrinsGoldstein 2012
Pathway
Bioregulatory peptide interaction → modulation of proliferative and inflammatory pathways in monocyte/macrophage populationsAvolio 2022
Actin remodelling → cell migration; integrin-linked signaling → angiogenesis; anti-inflammatory cytokine modulationGoldstein 2012Malinda 1999
Downstream effect
Regulation of proliferative activity and inflammatory mediator production in respiratory-associated immune cellsAvolio 2022
Accelerated wound healing, endothelial migration, hair follicle regeneration, cardiac repair (preclinical)Goldstein 2012
Feedback intact?
Endogenous protein at baseline; supplementation amplifies
Origin
Khavinson bioregulator peptide complex derived from bronchial mucosa tissue extract methodology
17-AA active fragment of endogenous 43-AA thymosin β4 (TMSB4X gene)Goldstein 2012

02Dosage Protocols

Parameter
Chonluten
TB-500
Typical protocol dose
10–20 mg / day
Russian bioregulator tradition dosing; not standardized in Western literature.
Frequency
Once or twice daily
2× per week (loading); then 1× per week (maintenance)
Route
Oral (capsule) or sublingual
Sublingual claimed for enhanced bioavailability; not validated.
Evidence basis
In vitro mechanistic
Animal-strong + Phase 2 dermal/ocular trialsGoldstein 2012
Duration
10–30 days per cycle
Traditional Khavinson protocol; cyclic administration common.
4–8 weeks loading; longer maintenance for chronic injury
Clinical validation
None (PubMed indexed)
Standard dose
2 mg per injectionGoldstein 2012
Anecdotal community range; clinical Phase 2 trials used 70–840 mcg/kg IV.
Lower / starter dose
1 mg per injection
Reconstitution
Bacteriostatic water, 1–2 mL per 5 mg vial
Timing
Evening or pre-rest preferred (anecdotal)
Half-life
~2 hours (estimated; tissue uptake longer)

05Administration Protocol

Parameter
Chonluten
TB-500
1. Preparation
Typically supplied as capsules or sublingual tablets. No reconstitution required. Store in cool, dry place away from light.
Add 1–2 mL bacteriostatic water to 5 mg vial → 2.5–5 mg/mL. Roll gently.
2. Oral route
Swallow capsule with water, 20–30 minutes before meals or as directed. Traditional Khavinson protocol emphasizes empty stomach for absorption.
SQ near injury site (preferred), or systemic SQ (abdomen). Rotate sites.
3. Sublingual route
Place tablet under tongue, allow dissolution for 1–2 minutes. Avoid swallowing immediately. Claimed to bypass first-pass metabolism.
Evening or pre-sleep is most common anecdotal timing.
4. Timing
Morning dose preferred; may split into twice-daily if higher dose used. Consistency emphasized in bioregulator protocols.
Lyophilised: room temp, light-protected. Reconstituted: refrigerate, ≤30 days.
5. Cycle protocol
10–30 day cycles common in Russian tradition. Rest period of 1–3 months between cycles often recommended, though no published evidence for this approach.
27–31G, 4–8 mm insulin syringe.

06Stack Synergy

Chonluten
— no documented stacks
TB-500
+ BPC-157
Strong
View BPC-157

TB-500 and BPC-157 cover complementary halves of tissue repair: BPC-157 upregulates VEGFR2-driven angiogenesis and fibroblast outgrowth; TB-500 sequesters G-actin to enable endothelial / epithelial migration. The anecdotal canonical "healing stack" — pairs especially well for tendon and ligament injuries.

TB-500
2 mg SQ · 2× per week
BPC-157
250–500 mcg SQ · daily
Primary benefit
Combined angiogenesis + cell migration for tendon/ligament/muscle repair
