Comparison
While Acetyl tetrapeptide-5 is used in cosmetic eye formulations to decrease puffiness, eye bags, and dark circles by reducing edema and protecting proteins such as SOD from glycation51150159154, CJC-1295 is used in research to chronically elevate endogenous growth hormone and IGF-1 levels, enabling studies of body composition, metabolic, and anti-aging effects of prolonged GH exposure10.
While Acetyl tetrapeptide-5 works as a synthetic tetrapeptide, Ac-βAla-His-Ser-His (Eyeseryl), with reported ACE-1 inhibition and anti-glycation activity, proposed to improve microcirculation and reduce capillary permeability and fluid accumulation in periorbital tissues51150159157, CJC-1295 is a tetrasubstituted 29-amino-acid analog of GHRH(1–29) that acts as a potent agonist at the GHRH receptor and, in its DAC form, covalently binds serum albumin to extend half-life from minutes to days, resulting in sustained pulsatile GH and IGF-1 increase1082.
Acetyl tetrapeptide-5 is 4 amino acids long, whereas CJC-1295 is longer as it has a length of 29 amino acids. Acetyl tetrapeptide-5 is made up of a sequence of βAla, Histidine, Serine, Histidine. CJC-1295 is made up of a sequence of Tyrosine, Alanine, Aspartic acid, Alanine, Isoleucine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Glutamine, Serine, Tyrosine, Arginine, Lysine, Valine, Leucine, Alanine, Glutamine, Leucine, Serine, Alanine, Arginine, Lysine, Leucine, Leucine, Glutamine, Aspartic acid, Isoleucine, Leucine, Serine, Arginine.
