BPC-157
Regenerative peptide
A synthetic pentadecapeptide based on a partial sequence identified in human gastric juice. It is one of the most-studied peptides in preclinical tissue-repair research.
TB-500
Regenerative peptide
A synthetic peptide related to the actin-binding protein thymosin beta-4, studied alongside BPC-157 in preclinical recovery research.
CJC-1295
Growth-hormone secretagogue
A synthetic analog of growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) studied in endocrinology research, frequently paired with a ghrelin-receptor agonist such as ipamorelin.
Ipamorelin
Growth-hormone secretagogue
A selective synthetic pentapeptide that acts on the ghrelin/GH-secretagogue receptor, studied in endocrinology research, often alongside CJC-1295.
Semax
Nootropic peptide
A synthetic peptide derived from a fragment of ACTH, studied in neuroscience research, particularly in Russian literature.
Selank
Nootropic peptide
A synthetic analog of the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin, studied in neuroscience and anxiety-model research.
5-Amino-1MQ
Metabolic research compound
A small-molecule NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor studied in metabolic research. Not a peptide, but commonly grouped with research compounds.
AOD-9604
Metabolic peptide fragment
A synthetic fragment of human growth hormone (the C-terminus, residues 176-191) studied in metabolic research.
Thymosin Alpha-1
Immunomodulatory peptide
A synthetic version of a naturally occurring thymic peptide, studied extensively in immunology research.
LL-37
Antimicrobial peptide

MOTS-c
Mitochondrial-derived peptide
A mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the mitochondrial genome, studied in metabolic and exercise-physiology research.
Epitalon
Pineal peptide
A synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) based on the pineal peptide epithalamin, studied in aging and telomere research.
GHK-Cu
Copper-binding peptide
A naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (Gly-His-Lys) complexed with copper, studied widely in skin-biology and tissue-remodeling research.
Tesamorelin
Growth-hormone secretagogue
A stabilized synthetic analog of growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), studied in growth-hormone-axis research.
PT-141
Melanocortin-receptor agonist
