LATEST PEPTIDE ARTICLES

FOXO4-DRI is a synthetic peptide that is actively researched regarding its potential to induce programmed cell death in aged cells, and thus reduce the burden that aged cells pose on different tissues. Apparently, the peptide achieves that by mimicking a part of the...

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, also referred to as Pal-GQPR, is considered a tetrapeptide that may “stimulate collagen renewal and inhibit collagen degradation” in mammalian models according to the available research.(1) This tetrapeptide is described as a palmitoylated...

Ovagen is a tripeptide with the structure of Glu–Asp–Leu. Therefore, it is also sometimes mentioned in scientific literature under the abbreviation EDL. Ovagen is considered one of Khavinson’s peptides, which may play a role as a cellular bioregulator. Specifically,...

MGF IGF-1 Ec is a short peptide that is also referred to as the E-domain of full-length MGF (mechano-growth factor). It appears to be a peptide made of 24 amino acids that is produced when the IGF-1 gene is translated into an amino acid sequence. During this process,...

Cortagen (Ala-Glu-Asp-Pro) is a tetrapeptide that researchers have studied as a possible modulator of cellular programs tied to stress handling, cellular aging, other chromatin changes, cellular differentiation, and cellular repair. (1) It is often classified as a...

Ipamorelin appears to be a synthetic pentapeptide with the sequence of Aib–His–D-2Nal–D-Phe–Lys–NH2. According to pioneers in Ipamorelin research, such as the team of Raun et al., the peptide apparently behaves as a growth hormone secretagogue  (GHS) receptor agonist...

Researchers exploring anabolic signaling and pathways in mammalian research models may consider experiments with peptide blends that activate somatotroph cells through complementary mechanisms. Specifically, the somatotroph cells in the anterior pituitary are...

Triptorelin is a peptide made of 10 amino acids. It is posited to be a decapeptide analog of the endogenous gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) that appears to act on anterior pituitary cells that typically regulate gonadotropins.(1) By definition, Gonadotropins...

Decapeptide-12 is research peptide made of ten amino acids with the sequence YRSRKYSSWY, which appears to be a targeted inhibitor of melanogenesis that acts primarily by competitively blocking tyrosinase, the rate-limiting enzyme in melanin biosynthesis. The peptide...
