- GLP-1/GIP Dual Agonist
- Survodutide
- Co-activation of incretin receptors
- 24.2% weight reduction at 72 weeks
- Leucine substitution at position 26 increases GIP affinity
- Mechanism-driven design outperforms novel molecular scaffolds. Dual receptor targeting is the reproducible pattern
- Immunomodulatory
- Thymalin
- Thymic epithelial cell proliferation
- 18% CD4+ increase, 67% CD4+/CD8+ normalization
- Pentapeptide sequence targets thymic cortex receptors
- Bioregulatory precision avoids systemic immune suppression. Localized receptor binding is the clinical differentiator
- Nootropic
- Cerebrolysin
- BDNF/NGF mimicry via TrkB activation
- 14% slower ADAS-Cog decline, 8% hippocampal volume preservation
- Porcine-derived neurotrophic factor concentrate
- Neurotrophic mechanism bypasses amyloid pathology. Works in ApoE4 patients who fail cholinesterase inhibitors
- Nootropic Peptidomimetic
- Dihexa
- HGF/c-Met receptor activation
- 22% executive function improvement
- Molecular weight 496 Da allows oral bioavailability
- Small molecule design enables oral dosing without sacrificing receptor specificity. The future of nootropic peptides
