Epitalon Peptide Introduction: Epitalon (also called epithalon or epithalone) is a synthetically-derived tetrapeptide. As epitalon has been shown to increase the production of telomerase which in turn strengthens and lengthens telomeres, this means that epitalon can play a vital role in decreasing the aging process and thus extending human longevity. Epitalon has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancerous …

Previous work from our laboratory prompted us to study the effects of short-term, acute administration of TRH or its chronic oral administration, on organs, tissues and aging-related metabolic and hormonal markers, in order to acquire more knowledge on effects, dosage and timing of administration according to its circadian cyclicity. In addition, we wanted to verify its anti-aging effects on two …

GDF-8 (propeptide-Fc) is a myostatin inhibitor of muscle growth and development process. Myostatin is present in the healing process of muscles and its nature is to inhibit myogenesis (the process of formation of muscular tissue). Scientists have been studying a new method to enhance the repair and regeneration of both muscle and bone in certain injuries through a new recombinant …

ACE-031 is an investigational protein therapeutic that builds muscle and increases strength by inhibiting molecules that bind to and signal through a cell surface receptor called Activin Receptor Type IIB (ActRIIB). ACE-031 is a recombinant fusion protein that is produced by joining a portion of the human ActRIIB receptor to a portion of a human antibody. ACE-031 is an investigational …

Adipotide is a new drug that is showing some promise in the area of obesity research. This drug was initially created as a cancer treatment designed to starve cancer cells of a blood supply so they would stop growing. The effects of Adipotide have shown that the drug actually starves fat cells of blood forcing them to die and be …

Eptifibatide (Integrilin, Millennium Pharmaceuticals, also co-promoted by Schering-Plough/Essex), is an antiplatelet drug of the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor class.[1] Eptifibatide is a cyclic heptapeptide derived from a protein found in the venom of the southeastern pygmy rattlesnake (Sistrurus miliarius barbouri). It belongs to the class of the so-called arginin-glycin-aspartat-mimetics and reversibly binds to platelets. Eptifibatide has a short half-life. The drug …

Follistatin 315 Description: Follistatin 315 FST is a single chain gonadal protein that specifically inhibits follicle stimulating hormone release. The single FST gene encodes two isoforms Follistatin 317 and Follistatin 315 containing 317 and 315 amino acids respectively, resulting from alternative splicing of the precursor mRNA. In addition to being a natural antagonist, follistatin can inhibit the activity of other …

Follistatin is fascinating protein that can increase muscle mass beyond natural potential by suppressing myostatin. Scientists first identified follistatin while examining porcine (re: pig) follicular fluid in the ovaries. 1 . Follistatin-344 significantly increases the muscle mass and strength (by blocking the action of myostatin) – supports hyperplasia (new muscle cells), and active hypertrophy (enlargement of muscle cells). 2 . …

Selank is a nootropic, anxiolytic peptide based drug developed by the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Selank is a heptapeptide with the sequence Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro. It is a synthetic analogue of a human tetrapeptide tuftsin. Selank is a synthetic analogue of the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin; as such, it mimics many of its effects. It has been …

DSIP Peptide Introduction: Delta sleep-inducing peptide, abbreviated DSIP, is a neuropeptide that when infused into the mesodiencephalic ventricle of recipient rabbits induces spindle and delta EEG activity and reduced motor activities. DSIP Peptide Application: 1) DSIP lowers basal corticotropin levels and blocks their release. DSIP also makes it easier for the body to release LH (luteinizing hormone). In addition, it …

Gonadorelin (GnRH – Gonadotropin-releasing hormone), also known as luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone and luliberin, is a trophic peptide hormone responsible for the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the anterior pituitary gland. Gonadorelin (GnRH) is synthesized and released from the neurons inside the hypothalamus. This peptide belongs to the gonadotropin-releasing hormone family. The releasing of Gonadorelin represents …

Tesamorelin is made with growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF).Tesamorelin is used to reduce excess fat around the stomach that is caused by taking certain HIV medications. This condition is also called lipodystrophy (LYE-poe-DIS-troe-fee).Tesamorelin is not a weight-loss medication and should not be used to treat obesity. Tesamorelin is the only FDA drug approved for the intended reduction of abdominal fat deposits …
