Humanin Peptide: Mitochondrial-Derived Longevity Research, IGF-1 Signaling & Neuroprotection Studies

Humanin is a 21-amino acid peptide encoded within mitochondrial DNA, first identified in the context of Alzheimer’s research and now studied for its roles in neuroprotection, IGF-1 signaling, longevity, and metabolic regulation. This article explores what current laboratory and preclinical research reveals about humanin’s mechanisms and potential scientific significance. All content is intended for research purposes only.

Khavinson Bioregulators: The Complete Research Guide to Epitalon, Pinealon, Prostamax & Short-Chain Peptides

Prof. Vladimir Khavinson’s bioregulator peptides — Epitalon, Pinealon, Prostamax, and a family of other short-chain compounds — represent four decades of Russian geroscience that Western researchers are now engaging with seriously. This guide covers the tetrapeptide/tripeptide framework, telomere research, neuroprotection findings, and the real limitations of the current evidence base.
