PE 22-28

  • PE 22-28 is a synthetic peptide derived from the larger epitalon peptide, which is known for its potential to regulate telomerase activity and promote cellular longevity. The peptide primarily acts by influencing the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, regulating melatonin production, and potentially enhancing the body’s natural ability to repair and protect DNA. By modulating the activity of telomerase, PE 22-28 may play a role in extending telomeres, which protect chromosomes during cell division, thus contributing to anti-aging and regenerative processes. It also exhibits antioxidant and neuroprotective effects, which may reduce oxidative stress and protect against cellular damage.

    • Provides neuroprotective effects, reducing brain damage from trauma or degenerative diseases.

    • Enhances cognitive function and memory retention.

    • Stimulates neurogenesis, promoting the formation of new neurons.

    • Reduces oxidative stress in the brain, protecting neurons from damage.

    • Enhances synaptic plasticity, improving learning and memory.

    • Promotes the repair of damaged neural circuits.

    • May improve mood and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.

    • Provides potential anti-inflammatory effects in the central nervous system.

    • Improves recovery after traumatic brain injury (TBI).

    • May have anti-aging effects on the brain by supporting neuroprotection.

    • Alzheimer’s Disease: Reduces cognitive decline and enhances memory retention in Alzheimer’s patients.

    • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): Promotes recovery and repair of neural circuits.

    • Stroke Recovery: Assists in the regeneration of neurons and cognitive recovery after a stroke.

    • Neurodegenerative Diseases: Supports cognitive function in Parkinson’s and other neurodegenerative conditions.

    • Cognitive Decline Due to Aging: Improves cognitive function and slows age-related cognitive decline.

    • Depression: May reduce symptoms of depression through neuroprotection and enhanced neural plasticity.

    • Anxiety Disorders: Reduces anxiety symptoms by promoting neural repair.

    • Post-Surgical Brain Recovery: Enhances recovery after brain surgery.

    • Learning Disabilities: Improves learning ability by promoting neurogenesis.
