Advanced Peptides for Modern Research

Tesamorelin

Tesamorelin, is a syntheitic peptide consiting of 44 amino acids. It is a growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analogue researched for the treatment of HIV-associated lipodystrophy (dysfunctional, toxic fat deposition). It is also being researched for its ability to improve peripheral nerve health, slow the progression of mild cognitive impairment, and the reduction visceral fat. This peptide has been found to reduce adiposity by nearly 20% in this population [1]. Research suggests that tesamorelin is approximately 4 times more effective in reducing adiposity than all of the other available therapies combined [2].

PT-141

PT-141, also called Bremelanotide (generic clinical name), is a heavily modified synthetic derivative of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It has been tested in clinical trials as a treatment for both male/female hypoactive sexual desire disorder and acute hemorrhage. PT-141 is an agonist for the melanocortin-4 and melanocortin-1 receptors. Research shows that it promotes sexual arousal and stimulates the immune system.

NAD+

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a vital coenzyme in all living cells, essential for metabolic processes and cellular function. It acts as a mediator of redox reactions, alternating between its oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH) forms to facilitate electron transfer, crucial for energy production and sustaining life. Involved in over 500 enzymatic reactions, NAD+ is central to maintaining cellular homeostasis. Research shows that NAD+ may be beneficial in improving muscle function, protecting cells of the nervous system, and generally reducing the effects of aging. Beyond energy metabolism, NAD+ supports DNA repair and gene regulation through enzymes like sirtuins and PARPs. Sirtuins use NAD+ to regulate cellular functions such as DNA repair, gene expression, and aging, while PARPs utilize it to repair DNA damage and maintain genomic stability. These roles underscore NAD+'s importance in cellular integrity and combating aging.

Melanotan 2 (MT2)

Mitochondrial Peptide

Melanotan-2 (MT-2) is a synthetic analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. Developed in the 1980s, Melanotan-2 has been shown to increase sexual arousal, reduce compulsive/addictive behavior, curb hunger and increase melanin production. Research has shown the peptide to stimulate melanocytes therefore producing increased skin pigmentation and may help to combat autism when used during early childhood development.
