Humanin 10 mg – Peptide Hubs
Humanin is a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) composed of 24 amino acids, discovered in the brain and muscle tissue. It plays a vital role in cellular protection, oxidative stress regulation, and age-related decline mitigation. Humanin has gained attention in longevity and neurodegeneration research for its unique cytoprotective signaling properties. Peptide Hubs offers Humanin in a 10 mg lyophilized vial, manufactured to research-grade quality standards.
Mechanism of Action
Humanin binds to specific receptors such as FPRL1 and IL-6-type receptors, modulating intracellular stress responses and apoptosis. It protects neurons, muscle cells, and endothelial tissue from oxidative damage and inflammation. Studies also suggest it enhances insulin sensitivity and supports mitochondrial biogenesis. For foundational insights, refer to this NIH review on Humanin's role in mitochondrial signaling.
Primary Research Applications
- Neuroprotection and Alzheimer's disease models
- Cardiovascular aging and endothelial repair studies
- Mitochondrial dysfunction and cellular stress models
- Longevity and anti-aging protocols
Researchers exploring synergy often combine Humanin with GHK Basic for tissue regeneration or DSIP for cognitive and sleep-related studies. When investigating senolytic or aging interventions, it may also complement FOX04-DRI or GHRP-2 in mitochondrial restoration protocols.
