Epithalon (Epitalon)
Longevity peptide from the pineal gland. Activates telomerase to protect DNA caps and restores melatonin production. Russian studies showed 11-16% lifespan increase in animals.
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)
Critical molecule for cellular energy and DNA repair. Levels may drop ~50% by middle age. Activates sirtuin longevity genes and powers PARP DNA repair enzymes. Injectable form bypasses oral absorption issues.
FOXO4-DRI
Longevity peptide that selectively triggers senescent 'zombie cells' to self-destruct while sparing healthy cells. One of the most precise senolytic tools available.
SS-31 (Elamipretide)
Engineered to target inner mitochondrial membrane via cardiolipin binding. Stabilizes cristae, improves ATP production, and reduces oxidative stress. FDA-approved for Barth syndrome (as Forzinity) — the first FDA-approved mitochondria-targeted therapy.
Thymalin
Derived from the thymus gland. Restores immune function and has shown life-extending properties by reactivating the aging immune system.
Humanin
Protective mitochondrial peptide that shields cells from oxidative stress, supports brain cell survival, and protects the heart.
GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide)
A naturally occurring copper peptide your body already makes. Drives skin rejuvenation, wound healing, and anti-aging by boosting collagen and activating anti-aging genes.
MOTS-c
Mitochondrial DNA-encoded peptide that activates AMPK, improving insulin sensitivity, fat burning, and mimicking exercise at the cellular level. Stacks well with SS-31 and NAD+.
Vesugen
Cardiovascular bioregulator peptide that supports blood vessel health, strengthens vessel walls, and promotes healthy circulation.
Proven Synergy Stacks for Longevity
Mitochondrial-axis overlap. SS-31 binds cardiolipin to stabilize inner-membrane structure; NAD+ is the redox substrate for sirtuin and electron-transport flux. Together they target the same organelle through complementary nodes (structure + cofactor pool).
GHRH × GHRP convergence on the somatotroph. CJC-1295 (GHRH analog) primes the pituitary; ipamorelin (selective GHRP) triggers GH release without ACTH or prolactin elevation.
Two-tissue Khavinson bioregulator pairing. Epithalon (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) influences telomerase activity in pineal/peripheral cells; thymalin influences thymic epithelial signaling. Both data sets originate from the same Russian research group and have not been independently replicated.
AMPK convergence at different tiers. Retatrutide is a triple agonist at GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors (Phase 2 NEJM 2023, N=338); MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide that upregulates AMPK and GLUT4 translocation in muscle. Hormone-axis × intracellular-energy-sensor pair.
GLP-1/GIP/glucagon triple-receptor signaling combined with NAD+ as substrate for sirtuin-driven lipid oxidation gene expression. Hormonal-axis × cofactor-pool pair.
Triple-incretin receptor signaling combined with mitochondrial-membrane stabilization. Hormonal-axis × organelle-structure pair — Phase 3 retatrutide trials ongoing; SS-31 Phase 3 MMPOWER-3 missed primary endpoint.
