Thymosin and thymopoietin are hormones produced by the thymus gland. The thymus is crucial for the development of the immune system. T - lymphocytes (T - cells) are a type of white blood cell that play a central role in cell - mediated immunity. The thymus hormones thymosin and thymopoietin are specifically involved in the maturation of T - lymphocytes. B - lymphocytes (B - cells) mature in the bone marrow.
