Researchers believe AICAR peptide (5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) to be a synthetic analog of adenosine monophosphate (AMP). Both AICAR and AMP are thought to belong to a class of molecules called nucleotides, which serve as the basic building blocks...

Pegylated MGF (Pegylated Mechano-Growth Factor) is a truncated isoform of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), structurally modified to support stability and bioavailability. Pegylated MGF is speculated to play a critical role in promoting myoblast proliferation and...

Fragment 176-191, which scientists may also refer to as hGH Frag 176-191, tyr-hGH 177-191, or AOD-9604, is a synthetic peptide derived from the hGH. It comprises the last 16 amino acids of the hGH molecule, a region hypothesized to be its primary "lipolytic fragment"....

BPC-157, often described as a stable gastric pentadecapeptide (preliminary observations indicate that it may withstand degradation within gastric environments), is a synthetic peptide made of 15 amino acids.(1) It is also sometimes identified under the designations L...

Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 (commonly termed as Argireline or acetyl hexapeptide-8 amide) is a synthetic peptide composed of six amino acids arranged in the sequence of Ac-EEMQRR-NH2 (N-acetyl - L-alpha-glutamyl - L-alpha-glutamyl - L-methionyl - L-glutaminyl - L-arginyl -...

Tripeptide-29, chemically also known as Glycylprolylhydroxyproline, is a synthetic mimic of a naturally occurring collagen-building block, composed of the amino acid sequence Gly-Pro-Hyp.(1) This sequence represents one of the fundamental motifs of collagen, a...

Pentapeptide-3V (Vialox) is a synthetic peptide derived from snake venom and comprises a five-amino-acid sequence (Gly-Pro-Arg-Pro-Ala, or GPRPA).(1) As per the researchers, it is suggested that this peptide acts as a competitive antagonist at the nicotinic...
