Treatment of these mice with thymulin alleviated fever, reduced apoptosis, increased splenic cell number, and decreased cytokine production, Hsp72, Hsp90, and TLR4 expression, and the activity of the signaling pathways examined
It may help reduce skin pigmentation by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme tyrosinase, which plays a role in melanin production
Long-term use may also affect organ function, nutrient balance, and hormone regulation, and could lead to drug-to-drug interactions

In the third model ( C ), drug placed in the first compartment (blood) equilibrates rapidly with the second compartment (extravascular volume) and the amount of drug in blood declines exponentially to a new steady state
