Anti-Aging Peptides
Targets aging-related mechanisms
Peptides (12)
NAD+
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a critical coenzyme found in every living cell. It is essential for mitochondrial function, DNA repair, and cellular energy metabolism. Levels decline with age, and supplementation is researched for anti-aging and metabolic health.
CJC-1295 (Modified GRF 1-29)
CJC-1295 is a synthetic GHRH (Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone) analog with extended duration due to Drug Affinity Complex technology. Studied for its effects on growth hormone release and body composition.
Sermorelin
Sermorelin is a synthetic 29-amino acid analog of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). It was FDA-approved for pediatric growth hormone deficiency and is widely used off-label for anti-aging and body composition optimization.
Epitalon (Epithalon)
Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) studied primarily in Russia. Research focuses on telomerase activation, pineal gland function, and potential anti-aging mechanisms.
Ipamorelin
Ipamorelin is a selective growth hormone secretagogue developed by Novo Nordisk. It stimulates GH release without significantly affecting cortisol or prolactin levels. Has been studied in clinical trials for postoperative recovery.
SS-31 (Elamipretide)
SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide that concentrates in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Being developed for mitochondrial diseases, heart failure, and age-related conditions.
Humanin
Humanin is a 24-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded in the 16S rRNA gene. Discovered for its ability to protect neurons from amyloid-beta toxicity. Research explores its roles in neuroprotection, metabolic regulation, and cellular stress resistance.
GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide)
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring tripeptide-copper complex found in human plasma, saliva, and urine. Studied primarily for wound healing, skin regeneration, and anti-aging applications. Available in topical formulations.
GHK (Tripeptide)
GHK (Gly-His-Lys) is a naturally occurring tripeptide found in human plasma, saliva, and urine whose levels decline with age. Distinct from its copper-bound form (GHK-Cu), free GHK is researched for its ability to modulate gene expression patterns associated with tissue repair, anti-inflammation, and regeneration.
Thymalin
Thymalin is a polypeptide complex originally extracted from calf thymus glands, developed in Russia. Research focuses on immune restoration, anti-aging effects, and thymic function recovery, particularly in elderly and immunocompromised subjects.
Pinealon
Pinealon is a synthetic tripeptide bioregulator (Glu-Asp-Arg) developed in Russia, targeting pineal gland and central nervous system function. Research focuses on sleep regulation, neuroprotection, and cognitive function in aging subjects.
Cortagen
Cortagen is a synthetic tetrapeptide bioregulator (Ala-Glu-Asp-Pro) developed at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. Research focuses on normalizing cerebral cortex function, cognitive enhancement in aging, and neuroprotection.
