also known as: Cardiac bioregulator peptide, Cardioprotective tetrapeptide
Half-life: Unknown; very short
Cardiogen is a short tetrapeptide bioregulator developed by the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology (Russia). It targets cardiac muscle tissue to improve myocardial function, particularly in conditions of ischemia, aging-related cardiac decline, and heart failure.
Mechanism of Action
Acts as a chromatin-binding peptide that activates epigenetic expression of cardioprotective genes, improving energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes and reducing apoptosis.
AICAR activates AMPK-mediated cardioprotection alongside Cardiogen's gene-level cardiac support — complementary mechanisms.
Vesugen targets the vasculature; Cardiogen targets the heart muscle — comprehensive cardiovascular support.
SS-31 protects mitochondria in cardiomyocytes; Cardiogen supports broader cardiac gene expression.
None listed.
Alternate cardiovascular and immune bioregulators for comprehensive longevity cycling.
Storage
Refrigerate at 2–8°C (36–46°F).
Reconstitution
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water.
