Chonluten

Lungs & airways Research only Animal studies Synthetic short peptide (Cytogen)

Also called EDG peptide, T-34

A three-amino-acid Khavinson peptide associated with the lining of the lungs and stomach. It is reported to adjust genes tied to inflammation and antioxidant defense in airway tissue, and has been looked at in models of chronic lung disease.

What studies report

How it works

A Khavinson short peptide: at two to four amino acids it is small enough to pass through cell and nuclear membranes intact. The proposed mechanism is that it binds specific sites on nuclear DNA and changes which genes are switched on in its target tissue, rather than acting on a surface receptor the way most peptides do.
