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 glycation
Alanine
Ala / A · hydrophobic residue · neutral charge
AOD-9604
is studied as an anti-obesity peptide that can reduce weight gain and increase fat oxidation in obese animal models with generally neutral effects on IGF-1 and glucose metabolism in early human trials
Arginine
Arg / R · basic residue · positive charge
Argireline
is a topical cosmetic peptide reported to decrease dynamic wrinkles by partially mimicking the mechanism of botulinum toxin in a non-invasive manner

Asn / N · polar residue · neutral charge
Aspartic acid
Asp / D · acidic residue · negative charge
BPC-157
is investigated for accelerating healing of gastrointestinal mucosa, tendons, ligaments, bone, and nervous tissue in preclinical models, with anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic effects
Peptide record
Peptide record
DSIP is a Neuropeptide.
This Peptide was originally described for inducing spindle and delta sleep activity when infused into the brain of rabbits; later studies report stress-modulating and endocrine effects, though its physiological role is still debated47
DSIP is an endogenous nonapeptide, Trp-Ala-Gly-Gly-Asp-Ala-Ser-Gly-Glu, with proposed neuromodulatory actions; it interacts with components of the MAPK cascade and may be related to glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper (GILZ), but its precise biosynthetic origin remains unknown4757
DSIP is a Neurotransmitter modulator.
