Longevity
& Cellular Health

Longevity research spans several distinct mechanisms. FOXO4-DRI is a retro-inverso peptide studied for selectively inducing apoptosis in senescent cells. Mitochondria-derived peptides such as MOTS-c and humanin, and the mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide SS-31 (elamipretide), are investigated for their effects on mitochondrial function and cellular stress responses.

Epitalon, a synthetic tetrapeptide associated with pineal research, and thymosin alpha-1, an immunomodulatory peptide, complete the category alongside NAD+ and glutathione for redox and metabolic studies. Evidence levels vary widely, from in-vitro only to human clinical data, and each compound page states the current level plainly.
