Proxofim Peptide in Cell Regeneration and Tissue Health
Proxofim peptide, also known as FOXO4-DRI peptide, is a unique therapeutic peptide that has garnered attention recently due to its potential applications in reversing cell senescence. Studies have suggested that the Proxofim peptide may potentially counteract cellular...
Can Follistatin-344 Peptide Increase Cell Proliferation and Health?
Follistatin (FST), a naturally occurring glycoprotein, is universally present in various body tissues. As an autocrine factor,(1) it stimulates the production of a chemical messenger by the cell itself, which binds to the autocrine receptors of the same cell,...
Chonluten Peptide and its Role in Gene Expression
The process of directing the synthesis of a functional gene product, such as a protein or RNA molecule, through the encoded information in a gene is known as gene expression. This process is essential for the proper functioning of cells and organisms. With increasing...
Semaglutide Functions in Glucose Metabolism and Gastric Health
Glucagon-like peptide-1, called GLP-1, is an endogenous peptide composed of 30 amino acids.(1) As the name implies, it primarily works to increase insulin synthesis in the body while decreasing blood sugar levels, protecting pancreatic cells through insulin gene...
MOTS-c Peptide and its Role in Metabolism and Cell Health
Mitochondria are the “powerhouse” of the cell due to their role in delivering cellular functions, including but not limited to cellular metabolism, growth and development, and survival activities. However, with increased age, mitochondrial activities naturally weaken....
The Benefits of Gonadorelin in Cancer Prevention and Reproductive Health
Gonadorelin is a synthetic peptide possessing ten amino acids, and all are joined in a sequential form.(1) Structurally like the endogenous GnRH, Gonadorelin has 1-2 amino acid changes within the sequence.(2) Identical to the naturally present GnRH hormones,...
What is Oxytocin? Review, Benefits, Side Effects
Oxytocin is a naturally occurring cyclic peptide hormone composed of nine amino acids. It mainly acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain and is secreted by the pituitary gland.(1) The synthetic form of Oxytocin, called Recombinant Oxytocin, is also a cyclic...
The Functions of Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-2 (GHRP-2)
What are Growth Hormone Secretagogues? Growth Hormone secretagogues are a group of substances that induce the release of Growth Hormone. These include the agonists of Growth Hormone/Ghrelin secretagogue hormone receptors (Ghrelin, GHRP-2, GHRP-6) and Growth...
Research Implications of Melanotan 2 Peptides
Melanotan 2 Peptide Melanotan 2 peptide is a synthetic analog of alpha-MSH. MSH 2 is similar to MSH 1 in terms of potency, range of receptors, and effect but possesses greater in vivo stability, blood-brain permeability, and longer half-life. The melanocortin system...
