SNAP-8 Guide: Acetyl Octapeptide-3 for Expression Lines
SNAP-8 is a topical cosmetic peptide studied for expression lines, especially around the forehead and eyes. Here is what its mechanism, evidence and limitations actually mean.
Selank Peptides SA: Guide to Anxiety, Stress and GABA Research
Selank is a tuftsin-derived heptapeptide studied for anxiety, stress resilience, cognition and immune signalling. Here is what the research discussion supports, and where caution is needed.
Cagrilintide Guide: Appetite Control, Satiety and Weight-Loss Research
Cagrilintide is a long-acting amylin analogue being studied for appetite regulation, weight management and type 2 diabetes, including in combination with semaglutide.
KLOW vs GLOW: What’s the Difference?
KLOW and GLOW are commercial peptide-blend names, not single peptides. The usual difference is that KLOW adds KPV to the GLOW-style combination, although formulas vary by supplier.
SLU-PP-332 Guide: Exercise Mimetic Research and Muscle Growth Pathways
SLU-PP-332 is an emerging synthetic ERR agonist studied in animals for exercise-like metabolic effects, endurance, mitochondrial function and body composition. It is not a peptide and has no approved human use.
AOD 9604 South Africa: Fat Metabolism, Joint Research and Evidence
AOD 9604 is a modified human growth hormone fragment studied for fat metabolism and cartilage repair. Here is what the research supports, and where claims should be treated carefully.
Vesugen Peptide Guide: KED Vascular Bioregulator Research
Vesugen is a Khavinson tripeptide studied for vascular ageing, endothelial function, SIRT1 signalling and cellular senescence. This guide explains what the research focus does and does not support.
Sermorelin South Africa: A Research Guide to GHRH and Growth Hormone Signalling
Sermorelin is a well-studied GHRH analogue used in research on pituitary growth hormone release, IGF-1 signalling, recovery, sleep and body composition.
PNC-27 Guide: What the Experimental Cancer Peptide Research Actually Shows
PNC-27 is an emerging experimental peptide studied for selective cancer-cell killing through HDM-2 binding. The evidence remains preclinical, and cancer treatment claims need strong caution.
PT-141 Guide: Melanocortin Peptide for Sexual Desire Research
PT-141, also known as bremelanotide, is a melanocortin receptor agonist studied for sexual desire and arousal pathways, with FDA approval for a narrow HSDD indication in premenopausal women.
Ipamorelin South Africa: guide to GH signalling, recovery and body composition research
Ipamorelin is a selective growth hormone secretagogue studied for GH release, recovery, sleep and body composition. Here is how it works and how to compare research suppliers in South Africa.
Kisspeptin in South Africa: Reproductive Hormone Research Guide
Kisspeptin is an upstream reproductive neuropeptide studied for GnRH, LH and FSH signalling, with interest in fertility, puberty, sexual function and hormone-axis research.
