MOTS-c Research: What the Studies Show

MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide studied as a metabolic regulator and 'exercise mimetic'. The strongest data is animal and in-vitro, but human evaluation is now underway — here is each key study, in plain English.

SS-31 Research: What the Studies Show

SS-31 — also known as elamipretide, Bendavia or MTP-131 — is one of the few mitochondrial-targeted peptides to reach large registrational human trials. The results are genuinely mixed, and the detail matters. Here is what each programme actually measured.

Epithalon Research: Telomerase, Pineal Regulation & the Khavinson Studies

A study-by-study look at Epithalon (AEDG) — telomerase activity in cell culture, melatonin rhythm effects and the Russian longevity cohorts.

NAD+ Research: Animal Data, Human Trials & What Is Actually Proven

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme, not a peptide. It is grouped with the peptide market because the intact molecule is poorly absorbed by mouth and is instead handled by injection or infusion. The research picture is unusually lopsided: an enormous, strongly positive rodent literature sitting alongside a small and far more cautious set of human trials — most of which studied precursors such as NMN and NR rather than NAD+ itself.

DSIP Research: Trials, Data & What the Studies Show

First isolated in 1977 from rabbit cerebral blood, DSIP is a nine-amino-acid neuromodulator — not a sedative. Decades of data show it reshapes sleep architecture rather than forcing unconsciousness, and the literature is as contradictory as it is interesting.

Melatonin Research: Clinical Trials, Nasal Delivery & Meta-Analysis Data

Melatonin has an expansive, gold-standard library of thousands of peer-reviewed human clinical trials, neuroimaging studies and meta-analyses. This page walks through the strongest data across nasal, sublingual and oral delivery, and what each study actually measured.

Pinealon Research: Neuroprotection, Prenatal and Geriatric Trial Data

Pinealon has a well-documented footprint in Russian and Eastern European literature, spanning human clinical tracking, animal models and in-vitro cellular assays. This page walks through what each study actually measured and how the compound was delivered.
