Growth and longevity research compounds

This is the largest category in the catalog, and it spans two related but distinct research traditions: growth-hormone-axis secretagogues, and a smaller group of peptides studied for mitochondrial and cellular-aging mechanisms. Each compound below is sold and certified individually; grouping them by category does not mean they act by the same mechanism.

Growth-hormone-axis compounds

CJC-1295 no DAC and CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin are built around a growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog. The no-DAC form lacks the drug-affinity-complex modification that extends the DAC-bound version's research half-life, and it is frequently studied alongside Ipamorelin, a selective ghrelin-receptor agonist noted in the literature for a narrower receptor-binding profile than earlier growth hormone secretagogues.

Tesamorelin is another GHRH analog, one of the more extensively published compounds in this group. IGF-1 LR3 is a long-arginine analog of insulin-like growth factor 1, engineered to resist binding proteins that would otherwise limit its research half-life, and is studied in cell-growth and tissue-culture contexts tied to the IGF signaling pathway.

Mitochondrial and cellular-aging peptides

SS-31 is a mitochondria-targeted peptide studied for its interaction with cardiolipin on the inner mitochondrial membrane, in the context of mitochondrial bioenergetics and oxidative stress research. MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide, encoded within the mitochondrial genome itself, studied as a signaling molecule connecting mitochondrial and nuclear metabolic regulation.

Epithalon and Pinealon are short synthetic peptides from a research tradition originating in Russian gerontology literature going back several decades — Epithalon studied in relation to telomerase activity, Pinealon in preclinical neuroprotection research.

NAD+ is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, a coenzyme central to cellular redox reactions and energy metabolism, and one of the most widely studied molecules in aging and mitochondrial-function research generally.

Antioxidant research

Glutathione is a naturally occurring tripeptide — glutamate, cysteine and glycine — and one of the body's principal endogenous antioxidants. It appears throughout the oxidative-stress literature across a wide range of tissue and cell-model types.

What this overview does not cover

Consistent with our research-use-only status, nothing above states or implies a dose, an administration route, or an outcome in a person. Each entry describes a research area a compound appears in, not a result it produces.
