Peptides for Neuroprotection Research
Comprehensive guide to 2 peptides researched for neuroprotection research, ranked by evidence strength from FDA-approved to early preclinical. Each compound is evaluated on mechanism, clinical status, and safety profile.
Overview
2 research peptides are currently studied for neuroprotection research. This guide ranks them by evidence strength and covers their mechanisms, safety profiles, and current clinical status.
Pinealon — Preclinical / Uncontrolled Russian Studies
Evidence Rating: D
Category: Nootropic / Neuroprotective
Pinealon (Glu-Asp-Arg, EDR) is a synthetic tripeptide (MW ~418 g/mol) developed by Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology as a bioregulatory peptide targeting brain and pineal gland function. It is part of the Khavinson peptide bioregulator family. Eviden...
Key claims: Neuroprotective effects in cell culture; Enhances melatonin production.
Cortagen — Preclinical / Uncontrolled Russian Studies
Evidence Rating: D
Category: Nootropic / Neuroprotective
Cortagen (Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu, AEDL) is a synthetic tetrapeptide (MW ~446 g/mol) developed by Vladimir Khavinson as a bioregulatory peptide targeting the cerebral cortex. Like other Khavinson bioregulators, it is proposed to normalize gene expression in brain tissue. Evidence is limited to Russian precl...
Key claims: Neuroprotective effects in ischemia models; Normalization of cortical gene expression.

Pinealon: Neuroprotective Tripeptide Research Guide
Pinealon, a synthetic tripeptide known as Glu-Asp-Arg or EDR, targets the central nervous system for neuroprotection. Developed by Vladimir Khavinson's team at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology, it shows effects on gene expression, cell proliferation, and protection against oxidative stress in neuronal models. Studies highlight reduced apoptosis, preserved mitochondrial function, and potential benefits in hypoxia and aging contexts, though much data comes from one research group.
