Compound Profiles

AHK-Cu

Hair Growth Copper Peptide | Dermal Papilla Stimulator

AHK-Cu penetrates scalp delivering copper directly to dermal papilla cells. Activates proliferation pathways, elevates Bcl-2/Bax ratio (anti-apoptotic), increases VEGF for blood flow, reduces TGF-β1, and promotes SOD production for oxidative stress reduction.

Sermorelin

GHRH Analog | Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone

Subcutaneous injection provides optimal bioavailability for binding GHRH receptors, stimulating pulsatile GH release while maintaining hypothalamic-pituitary axis integrity and allowing natural somatostatin negative feedback..

What's the dose range for cognitive enhancement versus being too much?

The cognitive 'sweet spot' is 0.5-2 mg/kg body weight (roughly 35-140 mg for a 70 kg person). Doses above 2 mg/kg often shift from antioxidant to pro-oxidant effects, becoming counterproduc…

Research Indications

By increasing dopamine synthesis capacity, bromantane enhances baseline motivation, initiative, and the ability to engage in and sustain effortful tasks. Users consistently report improved ability to start and complete demanding cognitive work. Provides a clean, non-jittery mental energy that supports prolonged cognitive effort. Unlike stimulants that front-load neurotransmitter release and lead to a crash, bromantane's gene-expression-level mechanism delivers steady-state enhancement over the course of the day. The combination of dopaminergic upregulation and anxiolytic activity makes bromantane particularly useful for maintaining cognitive performance during periods of high psychological or physical stress. Approved in Russia for the treatment of asthenic disorders with anxiety. Clinical trials demonstrated significant reductions in anxiety scores without the sedation, cognitive dulling, or dependence potential of benzodiazepines. Primary approved indication in Russia. Bromantane addresses the fatigue, reduced drive, and emotional instability characteristic of asthenic conditions, restoring normal energy and emotional regulation. As an actoprotector, bromantane improves physical endurance and recovery under conditions of heat stress, sleep deprivation, and sustained exertion. Originally developed for military applications requiring sustained physical output in adverse environments. Some evidence suggests improved recovery from physical exertion, likely related to both the dopaminergic enhancement of central drive and the anxiolytic reduction of stress-mediated cortisol elevation.

Community Research

Join others researching Cortagen — share findings, ask questions, and learn from real experiences Cortagen is a Khavinson bioregulator tetrapeptide (AEDP) with primary effects on the brain and central nervous system. Developed at Russia's St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology, it regulates inflammatory responses in the nervous system, restores balance between pro- and anti-oxidative processes, and stimulates interleukin-2 expression. Research shows potential benefits for ischemic brain injury recovery, nerve regeneration, and reducing autoimmune reactions affecting the CNS. Cortagen works through epigenetic regulation by penetrating cell nuclei and interacting with DNA to modulate gene expression. In the heart, it affects genes including Pass1, Hsc70, Bmp2, Wnt4, Eps15, and Eps15-rs. It powerfully regulates inflammatory responses in the nervous system, helping restore proper balance between oxidative and anti-oxidative processes. Cortagen stimulates IL-2 expression and helps regulate immune function, particularly by reducing autoimmune reactions.
