PE-22-28 Profile

Emerging

TREK-1 Channel Blocker | Shortened Spadin Analog

Overview

Synthetic heptapeptide derived from Spadin positions 22-28, functioning as potent TREK-1 antagonist with enhanced selectivity and duration versus parent compound. Primary research focus on rapid antidepressant effects.

Mechanism of Action

Selectively blocks TREK-1 potassium channels (IC50: 0.12 nM). Enhances serotonin neurotransmission in dorsal raphe nucleus, triggering CREB activation and hippocampal neurogenesis.

Key Benefits

  • Rapid antidepressant effects within 4 days (preclinical)
  • Hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptogenesis
  • Enhanced serotonergic neurotransmission
  • Extended ~23 hour duration of action
  • 300-500x greater potency than full-length Spadin

Research Indications

The following information is derived from published scientific literature and is provided for educational and research reference purposes only. It does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendations. These peptides are not approved for human use and are sold exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research.

Depression

Most Effective

Primary research focus with rapid effects in behavioral models within 4 days.

Anxiety

Moderate

Anxiolytic properties demonstrated in preclinical anxiety models.

Hippocampal Neurogenesis

Most Effective

Nearly doubles BrdU-positive cells after 4-day treatment.

Synaptogenesis

Effective

Promotes new synapse formation through CREB activation.

Memory Support

Effective

Hippocampal and prefrontal cortex TREK-1 expression supports memory.

Neuroprotection

Moderate

Potential ischemic protection and neuronal survival support.

Dosing Protocols

injectable

Subcutaneous injection to abdominal fat or thigh with site rotation.

Goal Dose Frequency Route
Antidepressant Effect 50-200mcg Once daily SubQ
Neurogenesis Support 100-200mcg Once daily SubQ

Key Tips
