| Compound | Research area | Overview | Read the profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Epithalon (Epitalon) The pineal tetrapeptide with 25 years of geroprotection literature — nearly all of it from a single research school. | Longevity & Metabolic | Epithalon (Epitalon, AEDG) is a synthetic pineal tetrapeptide studied for telomerase activation, melatonin rhythm restoration and lifespan in animal models; most evidence comes from the Khavinson group. | Read → |
| LIPO-C (Lipotropic Injection) A lipotropic MIC + L-carnitine blend — a nutrient combination, not a peptide. | Longevity & Metabolic | LIPO-C is a lipotropic injection of methionine, inositol, choline, and L-carnitine — nutrients used in fat metabolism, not a signaling peptide. | Read → |
| MOTS-c A 16-amino-acid peptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA — the signal that moves to the nucleus under metabolic stress. | Longevity & Metabolic | MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide studied for AMPK-mediated metabolic regulation, insulin sensitivity, and exercise physiology; it has reached early human trials. | Read → |
| NAD+ A cellular coenzyme central to energy metabolism and aging — studied in humans via its precursors NMN and NR. | Longevity & Metabolic | NAD+ is a coenzyme central to cellular energy and DNA repair; its precursors NMN and NR are advancing through human metabolic and aging trials. | Read → |
