TL;DR: These studies demonstrated that acetyl salicylic acid (aspirin) could enhance immune responses and synergize with thymosins.
Abstract: For some time our laboratory has been interested in the development and control of cellular immunity, both by the thymosins and other agents. Thymosins are a family of peptide hormones produced by the thymus and thymus-derived tissues such as T lymphocytes, which modulate differentiation of a variety of T cells providing us with immunity against viruses, mycobacteria, fungi and tumors. About ten years ago, while studying thymosins, Dr. Allan Goldstein’s laboratory looked at cyclooxygenase inhibitors, among other agents, to determine whether they might influence or inhibit thymic peptides. These studies demonstrated that acetyl salicylic acid (aspirin) could enhance immune responses and synergize with thymosins.
