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
Asparagine
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

Ipamorelin is a Hormone peptide.
This Peptide is investigated for producing moderate, physiologic-like GH pulses useful for studying anabolic, body-composition, and recovery effects with a relatively clean endocrine side-effect profile compared with earlier GHRPs16
Ipamorelin is a third-generation pentapeptide growth hormone secretagogue that selectively agonizes the ghrelin (GHSR-1a) receptor to trigger controlled, GH-specific pituitary release with minimal effects on cortisol or prolactin16269596
